Steve Jobs Limited His Kids Online Time??? Yep, He Sure Did

Interesting that of all people in the world, the Apple Tech man himself, Steve Jobs would limit tech time at his house for his kids. That says something!!! What are your thoughts about this? Kids are not learning the art of interacting and how to handle people, conflicts, sucess, bosses etc. face to face. These are all things they must know how to be successful and it needs to start while they are young!
