Before I had a kid, a huge part of my life happened on the internet. I was working remotely on a fully distributed team of people living in 70+ different countries. My spiritual community logged into our weekly Zoom call from a few different continents, and if I was looking for an interesting conversation I usually opened Twitter. I ordered food through an app, read all my books on Kindle, and bought most of the things I needed online. My husband and I travelled for a few months every year, and we rarely had to think much about what to pack - almost everything we needed was on one of a few small devices.
So true. Toddlers have near to zero interest in video calls. They are happy to see the person in the same way they are happy to see a photo of a favorite person. But the digital interaction doesn't do much for them, and they often go for the 'hang up' button rather quickly :)
