[quote=Anonymous]Question - if a grown adult is unable to let go of their phone (or video games) and regularly stays up late wasting time and then doesn’t have energy to do anything the following day, is that acceptable? If he can’t make the effort to play with his kid he is probably half-assing it at work too. How can he do any better with consistently poor sleep? My suggestion - go cold turkey on devices. Treat him like the teenager he is, and lock the phone and iPads up after 10pm (or ideally, after work itself). Let him detox and realize there’s more to life than YouTube. And no, I’m not a hypocrite for typing this on my phone on DCUM because I put away the phone after work to engage with my family, spend an hour on my phone after kids are asleep, then an hour or so reading a book, then bed so I can be refreshed in the morning. That’s what grown-ups do.[/quote]
