People who raised their kids without exposing them far too much to smartphones, tablets and modern tech, how did you do it? Were there any challenges involved?

I'm 22 years old, not in a relationship and I don't have any kids yet so I'm just asking out of curiosity.

I still haven't met a family that has successfully done this. My friends came very close with their first-born. Then they started letting their kids use an educational game thing with their iPad. They never once mentioned any challenges prior to that.
Did they manage to keep their child's iPad usage time under reasonable limit though?
Oh yes, even today. The iPads really only come out during long plane rides or when the parents have guests over. They are 8 and 12 and prefer reading now.
That's great, I'm sure it even made them do better at school as they're probably not as easily distracted by tech.
