As parents in the 21st century, we have so much technology available to use, with just a click of a button. It is difficult to find balance and hard to say no to it, knowing how easily it can entertain our children but, at the same time, understanding how addictive it can become. In our house, we have a few things we allow the boys to do that work really well for us – there are some things we absolutely love about technology and some we just don’t. Before jumping into it, I want to emphasise that this is what works in our family and for our children. I know it won’t suit every one, and it may not work for us forever. As our children grow, so will our parenting style.
