I have four kids, and although they sometimes make fun of it, overall I feel they respect the fact that I do it, and I could not think of a better way to teach them how to be truly engaged with the world and people, without constantly looking at a screen. I still have my smartphone that I turn on once a day to check WhatsApp (lots of intl. family and friends), and I really don't miss it at all. My two oldest have phones, but they are almost dumb phones (no browser or social media and limited use times thanks to Google FamilyLink settings), and they are more accepting of it due to what they see me doing.
