Time-Lock Safe Controls Phone

Sam Parr shares a story about how tech executives are becoming more conscious about technology usage, especially for their children.
"I bought this thing that locks potato chips in a sealed time locker from KitchenSafe, and I put my phone in there. I don't want my kids using phones and stuff like that. This tends to get bigger as people like you and me start having children.
We're going to limit this to 40 minutes a day or something. I went to an all-guys Catholic high school which was pretty good because they helped us evolve and grow, but I wish I had more of a hands-on father figure, someone to say 'Alright son, here's what you gotta do, this is how you treat people.' I think that kind of guidance can actually become way more popular."
