Steve Jobs Was A Low-Tech Parent

As Steve Jobs runs Apple, it is known that he will explain more often how to call reporters, lightly knock on them in recent articles, or how they are mistaken. I received a phone call to the receiving side several times. But there is nothing that Jobs will shock me about what I told you at the end of 2010. Because he is already doing what I wrote about the shortcomings of the iPad.

"So, will your child look like an iPad?" I asked Jobs. The company's first tablet was just on the shelf. "They did not use it," he told me. "We restrict the technology the child uses at home."

Surprisingly, Gates is not the only technical planner to limit the use of technology by children. Apple's founder told reporters of the New York Times that the 2014 article "Steve Jobs is a low-tech parent" that his children are not using the iPad yet. Used technology "

One reason is that the most cautious parents are technology designers and engineers. Steve Jobs is a notorious low tech parent. Silicon Valley technical managers and engineers register their children in immature Waldorf School. As founder of Amazon Jeff Bezos and Wikipedia founder Jimmy Wales, Google founder Sergey Brin and Larry Page went to non tech Montessori school. Many parents understand intuitively that ubiquitous shining screens adversely affect children. When the device was robbed we saw a fundamental temperament and wandering will be more and more widespread as children are not irritated by their super wakeup device forever. To make matters worse, we saw that when children were not plugged in, they were bored, hurried, bored, uninterested.

This is not impossible. According to the report, Steve Jobs is a low tech parent (his family talks about history on the table). The New York Times wrote to Waldorf school where screens were forbidden, how many technical executives of Silicon Valley sent their children. Chris Anderson, the CEO of 3D Robotics, the current drone manufacturer, said his wife set time limits and parental controls for each device at home. "My child accused me and my wife as a fascist, paying too much attention to technology, they said that no one has the same rule," he said from age 6 to 17 I said about five children. "It is because we experienced a direct technical risk, I saw it myself, I do not want this to happen to my child."
