In a world that’s all automated and is ruled by iOS and Android devices the founder of Apple, Steve Jobs will take you by surprise. We are struggling with the amount of screen time our kids get and meal times and travel seem almost impossible without the Ipad here is a father who will take you by surprise.
If we as buyers are constantly updating our tablets and phones and are spending almost 4-5 hours on it, then the creator himself would be spending a lot more. Surprisingly, Â that’s where we are wrong! Â When interviewed by a business newspaper, Steve Jobs said, ” “They haven’t used it. We limit how much technology our kids use at home.”
In fact, Jobs’s children didn’t seem “addicted at all to devices,” Jobs’s biographer Walter Isaacson said to Bilton. “Every evening Steve made a point of having dinner at a big long table in their kitchen, discussing books and history and a variety of things. No one ever pulled out an iPad or computer.”
Similar to Job, Twitter CEO Dick  Costolo  also has restrictions and rules for his kids on the usage of technology. For the longest time, parents have been in a dilemma as to how much technology should a child be exposed to? The fact that influential figures in the technology world place restrictions can be an inspiration for many.
