[quote=Anonymous]To the PP above, some of us purposefully don’t keep our phones in our hands outside of working hours. We like personal time to be personal time and we want to model to our children that life goes on even if one doesn’t glance at their phone every 5 seconds. If your unconventional schedule works for you then fine, but don’t expect everyone else to adhere to it or respond outside working hours.

I used to check my phone during morning and evening routines with my kids and then realized I was getting distracted and irritable with them because my mind was simultaneously trying to think about work while also dealing with the routine. It led to much less pleasant interactions. So now I unplug. IFF there is work requiring additional time (either because I took a chunk of time off during the day to attend a school activity, or because it is a busy time at work) then I log in for a couple hours at night. And I schedule any emails or Slack messages to arrive the next morning during working hours.[/quote]
