[quote=Anonymous]What is your secret? My kids are still preschoolers, so I am looking for advice, not a remedy. For context: we just came back from a vacation with friends and their tween/teenage kids, and I was shocked by the amount of yelling and threatening that it took to get the kids to do anything: help set the table, help clean up, help unload the groceries. They were glued to their devices at all times and just did not seem to participate much. The only time they did anything was they they were threatened that their devices will get confiscated. I do understand that tween/teen years are not easy, but is there a better way? What are some of the strategies that you can share.[/quote]
