      Since I am the only one with thumbs in my house, I don’t have to worry about the dogs getting out of control with the tech. LOL

      It is very hard when the schools have eliminated textbooks and handwritten homework. At my daughter’s HS, everything is read, written and submitted online

      We do things other than watch TV and computers. Exercise and going for walks at the Nature Center keep the focus on the natural world and stimulate conversation and contemplation.

      My husband and I try to do things together(nature walks/hikes) with our teenage daughter about once a week without the use of our technology, so that we can focus on making fun memories as a family.

      I make sure technology does not take over my home by limiting TV time and Ipad time to 2 hours. I do a lot of activities outside with my children.
