[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We ban screen time on weeknights. Kid is 14. When homework is done, we talk about it, and sometimes say "yes" if it isn't that late. [/quote] Yes, if only he could see that he would get more leeway if he earned our trust. I didn't have such restrictions when I was a kid, and I don't relish enforcing restrictions with him. I wish we could just let him be, but he would do nothing but screentime if we did. My cousin lets her boys have unlimited screentime and they are basically on those screens all the time, to the point we didn't even see them all Thanksgiving day except during the meal. [/quote] Earn your trust? What did he do to lose your trust...or did he ever have it?[/quote] Don't be a snot. "Did you do your homework" "Yes" (turns out not true) Repeated enough times, and my trust went. Truth is, life is better without screen time weeknights. The tv ban is on all of us, and we like it.[/quote]
