[quote=Anonymous]No screen time (tv, iPods, PS4) during the week. They complained the first week and then gave up because we weren't giving in - plus, our weeknights are so hectic with activities/kids playing outside, dinner, homework, bathing, and reading there was really no time. On the weekends, they play in the AM before we get up and get moving for the day (6:30-8:30 or so) and then if we are home and there isn't anything that we need help with (cleaning out the garage, putting away groceries, cleaning rooms, etc.) If we are home on weekend nights, they can play will 9:00 on Friday/Sat nights and 7pm on Sunday nights. Once they learned the rules, there is minimal arguing because we don't cave. They watch minimal tv - they chose PS4 and YouTube videos. What type of device they watch/play is irrelevant to me as long as homework is done, chores/helping around the house is done, and there is a balance between screen time and physical activity.[/quote]
