[quote=Anonymous]OP, I have been in your shoes and have had to detox. Announce there is a rule change and that each child has 2 hr a day of screen time, and then be tough through the initial whining period. There may be exceptions, but 6 hr a day on the regular isn't great. Are you in a situation where you are working and the kids are at home (that was my situation at the time)? If so, is camp an option, even some weeks just to break things up/help break the cycle? While many camps are full, some are not (e.g., in Fairfax County, I just saw something that Parktakes camps are 70% full). Stay strong![/quote]
