I have to ask, how many of you fellow techies came from households where they restricted your computer and smartphone use? Would you be you or better if you had been cut off from the digital world? How often did you lie awake under the covers until 3AM on a school night figuring out how to do something cool? How often did you get to take a conversation with a friend and run with it until someone fell asleep? I don't deny access to the digital world has risks, but I would have lost so much had my parents done a quarter of what some of you are suggesting.
