[quote=Anonymous]Nope. We were spending too much time on devices, so I calmly talked to my spouse about it and asked if we could make dinner time and bed time "unplugged" times. We leave our phones in the kitchen, away from the table, during dinner and we put our phones in our nighstands at bed time and snuggle. If one of us falls asleep first, the other person is free to get on their device if they want, but we established boundaries. Do you go to bed at the same time? Did you before the iPad? It is vital not to have a blaming conversation or to start by saying "You do this, you do that." Start with something positive, like "I really enjoy our time together at night and have been missing it lately. What would you think about going 'unplugged' a few nights a week so we can spend some quality time together right before bed?" [/quote]
