I'm 30, probably at the tail end age-wise who remembers who the world "used" to be before smartphones, social media, dating apps, and technology in general ruling our lives rather than being a part of it. Unfortunately the progression of technology is a slippery slope with unintended consequences. I'm also convinced that big tech + years of low interest rates were direct contributors to the cost of living and wealth gap spiraling out of control, notably in California. This is the new normal.

The thought has increasingly crept into my mind...why even have kids and subject them to all this?
