[quote=Anonymous]Stick to it as long as you can...for our 8th and 10th grader, their downtime settings on their phones are in "off" from 9pm -7am. Their friends don't have the same restrictions, and that's okay. That disparity will come up again and again in life, so this is no different. Really truly most kids are getting enough social phone time even with strict downtime rules and they are not missing out on much. Our setting allow our kids to wind down the last 30-60 min that they are awake...shower if not done already, pack bags for the next day, maybe play with the dog or lay on the couch with us before heading up to bed. Lots of studies show good sleep hygiene includes screen-free time an hour before bed.[/quote]
