[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Could you talk it out as a family to decide rules or guidelines? Chances are, they’ve noticed addictive phone behavior in mom or dad. They’re old enough to see how that affects family life and other activities. Can you prioritize those things first? Like before you can do gaming, play outside, do a chore, and spend 15 minutes hanging out with a family member. Or whatever it is they value (or maybe If they have a goal like running a 5k or solving a rubies cube or something they can use this to set aside practice time). Then you can play electronics. That way it isn’t an edict about limiting the games, but a tool for them to learn to prioritize their time.[/quote] (I wasn’t blaming phone behavior on you. Just pointing out that most adults experience the screen addiction thing from time to time, not you specifically!)[/quote]
