[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do you have a job outside the home? You sound exhausting!![/quote] Really? She's setting screen-time and a reasonable bedtime. She said she let other things go.[/quote] The kids are 14 and 17, not 4 and 7. I don't disagree with setting limits on screen time, but in near adults? You've got to help them learn to do things for themselves, suffer consequences for poor choices, etc. while under your care, so they don't completely fall down when they're on their own. I mean, what's this 17 year old going to do when she goes to college, if she still needs mommy to tell her when to go to bed? Whatever is going on in the household I don't think can be fixed by DH coming around to agreeing with OP on screen time and bed time. [/quote]
