The parents pipe up "well they wanted for nothing"

Well hello did you spend time with them as they grew up?

Errrr no.

In that case the blame lies with you!

Kids need their parents more than any bit of electronic item.

It's finding the right balance between the time you have available to spend with them, the time they want to spend with you and the options they have available. My daughter has a lot of gadgets but they are there for when she wants to use them.
