[quote=Anonymous]My 14 year old is on her phone or out with friends. She has chores she has to do, and some studying. She has to walk the dog. She has to help make dinner and then eat it with us. Sometimes she'll continue hanging out with us past dinner cleanup, sometimes she's right back to her phone. She's limited on school days so on days when she doesn't have school I think she goes a bit nuts. Sometimes she's reading something, sometimes engaging with social media, sometimes chatting with friends, and sometimes watching shows. Since she separates easily from her phone when asked (e.g. no fights when I ask her to take the dog for a walk, or come help make dinner) I'm not particularly worried about it. If she couldn't put down her phone and walk away, that would worry me. If she didn't do things with friends outside the phone, that would worry me. I wish she did other things to pass the time, but here I am posting on DCUM so I kind of lack the moral high ground.[/quote]
