It turned out that Gates not only did not allow children to have a mobile phone until 14 years, but also limited the time of its use. After dinner, smartphones were banned.

“We often set a screen-free time after which it helps kids fall asleep at a reasonable time,” Gates said. The Mirror.

Gates and his wife Melinda raise 3 children: 20-year-old Jennifer, 17-year-old Rory and 14-year-old Phoebe.

Despite the fact that Gates plays a key role in the technological revolution in the digital age, he still believes that there should be restrictions for children.

“We don't have cell phones at the table when we eat, we didn't give our kids cell phones until they were 14, and they were jealous of the other kids who got them first,” Gates says.

The billionaire, whose net profit is estimated at about $ 87 billion, seems to have become more rigid with age.

Despite the tremendous wealth, the Gates family, who reside on Lake Medina, near Seattle, Wash., Said they want to give their children the simplest upbringing, as much as possible.
