I think my family is pretty good at limiting our technology. There is not much of a generation gap between my dad and I but there is a small one between my mom and I. My dad is a business man so he is glued to his blackberry a lot with business calls and emails and can even teach me a few things about technology. My mom still hasn't completely figured out her phone but she is on her email at least 2 hours a day. Often times she needs me to help her with her computer or phone but she is pretty good with technology. I would say I probably use technology the most as far as my phone, facebook, twitter and so on but tend to do a pretty good job of knowing when enough is enough. I also have 3 younger siblings. Regan is 14 and does not use too much technology. She is on facebook a lot and does have a cell phone but other than that she does not use too much. Gracen is 10 and just recently got a cell phone so she is still trying to figure it out. I think the biggest jump is in my brother though. Because of my two sisters and I, he got started using technology at a much younger age. My brother is 7 and already knows how to play games on the computer, work the xbox and wii, set up the DVD player, and can work our guide on the TV. I think the thing that my family is the worst with is the TV. I would say the TV would be on for atleast 5-6 hours a day even if no one is watching it.
