[quote=Anonymous]Our 13 year old (7th grade) doesn’t have a phone or watch yet. But she has had an iPad since she homeschooled during Covid in 2nd grade. We don’t monitor her on it. She has a group of friends she messages with and face times with, watches various videos (educational and not) etc. But she is serious about soccer and the flute and, between driving and practicing, soccer is 2 hrs of her day. Add in shower, dinner, homework, and a few chores and she doesn’t have much time for screens during the week. Maybe an hour on average if that. She’s also unlimited on weekends but doesn’t use that privilege much - maybe 2-3 hrs of screen time on her own, more if we watch a movie as a family or something. Last Sunday she chose to spend about 8 hrs reading a good book in almost a single sitting and then Sunday before I took her on an all-day outing. Our younger DD (8) struggles with regulation and isn’t as involved in activities so we need to figure that out. [/quote]
