[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Well, DH and I do not have our phones in the bedroom at night, so same rule for our older teens. Like others, everyone has an alarm clock. The way I think about it is that their brains are still developing even as older teens. Lack of sleep affects that development, as does constant phone use. So I am pushing healthy phone use (like downstairs at night) as long as possible while I still have some influence.[/quote] Why do you have a rule for your own phones? Do you think you might not be able to put it down and turn the light off for bed? Mine generally sits on the night table (next to the actual clock!) It has no effect on my sleep.[/quote] PP you are replying to. I just feel more peaceful and relaxed without it there. Same thing on weekends when I leave it in another room to work on a project or garden and it's not near me for several hours. Texts/emails/notifications feel like little demands and the break is nice.[/quote]
