Technology has dramatically changed the way we live.
From revitalizing the way we shop to altering the way we interact and keep in touch with people, technology has arguably changed our lives for the better.
And it's also making life much easier for parents. There is an increasing number of startups and companies working on products that are geared toward parents and their children.

The Ubooly iPhone app comes with games, stories, and jokes to help parents entertain their kids.
You might wonder why parents would want to give up their iPhones to their kids, but even with electronic recycling programs and buyback programs like Gazelle, there's a staggering number of people who still hold on to their old electronics. A recent Gazelle survey found that 51 percent of smartphone users keep their old smartphones in a drawer or closet.
