Smart home automation can be a game-changer for family routines, but let's be real - it's not always seamless. I've found that using voice assistants to assign chores can be a great way to get kids involved, but it's not foolproof. Anyone else have kids who can outsmart Alexa?

AI-powered learning tools are a game-changer, but let's be real, they can also be a parental cop-out. When do we draw the line between personalized learning and lazy parenting?
