[quote=Anonymous]Of course it's sustainable. It's entirely up to you. I think you may run into trouble when your child wants to be part of text groups or FaceTime chats in middle school. Of course, you can say no. But it will affect their social inclusion. Up to you if that's a price with paying. Sometimes my kids have projects or group work that they do together over FaceTime. If you're no-screen, then you would have to figure out a workaround that is doable for everyone in the group-- the other parents may find it annoying if you're particular about this. Personally, I appreciate the flexibility of letting them do group work without having to drive them to someone's house. You may want your middle schoolers to be able to reach you when they are out and about. Some people get watches or flip phones for this.[/quote]
