Parenting of Steve Jobs

You really can change the world if you care enough.
Marion Wright Edelman

In her blog on SFGate Amy Graff noted...

"Steve Jobs was the father of two teenage girls and a son when he passed away in 2011. These kids grew up with a visionary father who co-founded one of the best-known tech companies. Jobs led the world into the digital age with gadgets that transformed the way we listen to music, watch movies, communicate, live our lives. You would imagine that his children’s rooms would have been filled with iPods, iPhones, and iPads.

"That’s not the case. Steve Jobs wanted everyone to have iPads, except his own children. In an article in the New York Times, reporter Nick Bilton says he once asked Jobs 'So, your kids must love the iPad?'

"Jobs' response: 'They haven’t used it. We limit how much technology our kids use at home.'"
