Family Unplugged

Technology has been wonderful for medical advancements. Yet, I cringe when I hear people say they have to catch up on their facebook.  What about catching up with your family?  We have all seen the posts saying how good family time is going.  I have to ask:  If family time is going so well, how do you have time to post it?  Tell us how great it was after the kidos are asleep.  I've found my family together in the same room, but we aren't together.  Tighe is in his DS, Patrick is in his phone, Dad is in his phone, I'm in my laptop.  I want my family to be into each other.  In the past, we have done 1 week technology free a few times.  It helps us focus on each other, but once the week is up, we go right back to our old habits. I'm currently taking a technology class that has me in my laptop most of my day. I miss my family.  I choose to marry a man I liked! This summer we are making a technology challenge that we can actually continue.  One day  of the week we will be free of facebook, Candy Crush, Bejeweled, Zinga Poker, internet surfing, game consoles, and TV.  My guys picked Thursday. What day will you choose?
