I spent my career in tech, but wasn’t prepared for its effect on my kids
'One of my favorite things you can do is plan a “device-free dinner.”'_A_ device free dinner? Why aren't all of them? These weird little "small gestures" make me feel like people have lost control of their homes.We have a landline expressly to give out to emergency contacts. And dinner is tech free. Every night.I think the main problem is tech has made everything _else_ easier, but parenting harder, and parents just aren't prepared to fight the battles / put in the work. A parent who is staring at Instagram when they're at the park shouldn't be surprised that their kids wants screens, too.
