Meredith Marx remembers family game night and how she,her brother and their parents gathered around the dining room table to talk,laugh and move game pieces around the boards. It was a fun way to reconnect and relax.

    Try as she might,it's become much harder for the mum to create similar memories for her 6-year-old twins,Casey and Parker. The kindergartners have been surrounded by technology all of their lives. They bounced to Baby Einstein CDs,learned Spanish from Dora the Explor-er,and are reading at a first-grade level thanks to their Leapster pads. They are good at getting to games on mum's iPhone and grandma's iPad.

    Though she came of age in the “wired” 1990s,Marx worries that all of the electronic things surrounding her daughters are taking them away from precious family time.

UI had video games when I was a kid,and it was fun,but now there's so much more that they completely controls people's time,” says the radio traffic reporter,who is in her early 30s. “ I don't know if kids today would get by without knowing these things. It's becoming all electronic. The only thing electronic I had was the board game—Operation. ”

Marx is not alone in wondering how our increasingly technology-focused world is affecting her children and other “digital natives”. Parenting can seem depressing in the digital era. Smart phones,tablets and serial networking have transformed how people work,play and communicate.

According to a survey released by the Kaiser Family Foundation in 2010,children between the ages of 8 and 18  spent more than 53 hours a week on electronic media. Typically,they devoted seven hours and 38 minutes a day to listening to music,watching TV and movies,playing video games and hanging out online,with many children using two forms of media at once.

Parents who don't keep up with the changes can feel like they are standing at the side of a widening technological gulf. They don5t want to lose their ability to stay dose to their children and guide them to a successful,healthy future. Therefore,how to bridge the digital gap is what they are wondering.
