The situation you're describing sounds perfectly acceptable and it sounds like he'll grow up with a healthy relationship with technology. Of course there are no right answers when it comes to parenting. My cousin's youngest on the other hand... Every single family event since he's been old enough to pick up an iPad he has sat in a corner and not communicated with anyone (he must be 8 or 9 now). Earbuds in, fixated on the screen. Last family event I was at he came over to my cousin to get his fingerprint to authorise some purchase or other and the scuttled back off to his corner, which is the most I saw him move all day. He won't even put it down if we're singing happy birthday or taking a family photo etc. I wonder what he'll be like when he grows up - whether he'll be able to communicate with people and form proper relationships. I know I've never managed to have a proper conversation with him. For what its worth, I do think my cousin and his wife are great parents and their other 3 kids grew up into perfectly respectable young adults, so I'm sure they know what they're doing.
