You seem to have found a mode of life that's been deeply satisfying, which is great to hear. However, you now seem to want to impose your 'how' on others. If your goal is to help others, they'll be much more receptive if you focus on the 'why' instead of 'how'.
If you inspect the reasons 'why' your life has been so satisfying, you'll arrive at a set of values that you can share with your son & his friends. Then, they can take these values and figure out 'how' to achieve them given the new world they're growing up in.
Using this approach, I think you may be surprised that there are a myriad of approaches to achieve your values in the 'digital' world as well as the 'real' world. And, as such, there are many ways of 'truly living' in addition to yours.
