[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Make a family rule about screen time.  None between the hours of x and y.

Hold his hand through some activities with the kids.  Send him to the park with one of the kids.  Don't wait for it to be his idea.

Lastly, I'd have a come to Jesus talk with him.  What kind of father does he want to be?  What kind of example does he want to set for his kids?  What does he want the kids to remember about him when he is dead and gone?  And what is he doing to make that happen?[/quote]

Would making a chore chart and a family rule chart for him be too childish? Because I'm almost at that point. I told him yesterday that I don't want TV on until Saturday. And first thing he does in the morning? Turns on the TV. I tell him, we had an agreement, he says the kids were crying and asking for it. And than huffs and puffs and goes to reading his phone in the other room while I'm scrambling to make breakfast and now dealing with kids crying because I've turned off the TV. 
I think those are great questions, I'm really going to have to sit down and ask him those.[/quote]
