NYT Article: The Risks of Parenting While Plugged In

This recent NYT article entitled The Risks of Parenting While Plugged In is an interesting read. While Mares and I don't text or use smart phones (out of personal preference), we do email quite a bit and blog occasionally. I feel like we do a pretty good job of not letting technology take away from our lives and particularly from our time with the kids, but I'll have to think about it more. It's good to stop and evaluate every so often as circumstances change.

Update: as I thought about whether this article applied to our life, I realized that the phone more than the internet can distract me when I should be parenting. Good to know and act on.
