My thoughts on technology

The question came up during a book club recently about kids and technology. Specifically, did we think (as the main character of the book did) that kids spend too much time with technology instead of learning practical things. As I've also read quite a few opinions about technology and whether or not it has a place on vacation, I'm going to give you my opinion.

In the current age, technology is useful and it's not going away. Having kids that are comfortable with that technology isn't a bad thing. It's going to be a major part of their lives, so the better they understand it and the more comfortable they are with it the easier their future will be. I personally enjoy the tech I own, but I don't understand it as well as my kids do. It's highly likely they won't understand it as well as their kids do either.
