I am at home with my kids from 6 to 8. If I have a work dinner, I'll schedule to have dinner after 8. But we're working at night. You'll get plenty of emails from me post-8 P.M. when my kids go to bed.

I have too many friends who tell me that they spend the first hour of every morning going through their e-mail messages. I'd like to use my time more carefully.

My kids probably stay up too late. My wife goes to bed around 3 A.M., and I follow around 7 A.M., but it works.

Unfortunately, I have a child who doesn't sleep.

I've never sent an email in my life. My kids laugh. I often hand the phone to them and say, 'Can you text this message to somebody.' I don't even have a computer on my desk.

I think a lot of the problem is that at 8 o'clock there's nothing on for kids.

Basically, when I get home I just do emails for around three hours, which stinks. I have a thing about getting into your inbox every night before going to bed. I'm usually working from my laptop or my phone, desperately trying to get my inbox to zero before I fall asleep.

One thing that I tell people all the time is, 'I'm not going to answer a call from you after nine o'clock at night or before nine o'clock in the morning unless it's an emergency.'

Unless it's an emergency, don't bother me after 6:00 p.m. and on weekends.

I get concerned when I see kids on their phones. They don't read enough anymore, anything longer than a tweet.
