[quote=Anonymous]Well, I wouldn't put her in the front seat - that's a safety issue. But I might negotiate with her on the screen time. Why not have an nice chat with her that acknowledges that she is growing and that the family rules should change as that happens. But explain why you won't shift on some of them - front of car due to safety, and bedtime due to early start (and teens need their rest). So that leaves the screen time. Maybe say she can have a little bit of that M-Th now? It's all a balance isn't it? In this case, the balance between your control of her schedule and her ability to balance her time herself. Good luck.[/quote]
