[quote=Anonymous]You can't really change the attitude--you just have to ride the wave. Also, set limits on the electronic devices. He'll find a way to entertain himself and don't worry if he doesn't. That's okay. But he needs to have consistency, which also means you need to be consistent too. Screen limits for him means you can't be staring at your phone all the time. Have him do household chores. Teach him how to do laundry. Make a ritual for the weekend, like movie night or game night--play chess or card games. Farmers market and learning how to cook. Riff off your interests as well as his. [/quote]
