Do you go through the school calendar at the beginning of the year and sync that to your calendar, or do you do it monthly? - yes, that takes all of about 3 minutes Do you keep materials on hand for last minute school projects or do you make a last-minute target run? - my kids know better than to ask me to make a last minute target run. they ask ahead of time or use stuff we have at home. How did you choose your kids’ dentist? - I spent 5 minutes looking through the accepted ones for our insurance, picked the one closest to our house, done.

What do you look for? - discipline, consequences, staying consistent. no. What is your plan for elder care when the time comes? - not sure What is your screen time policy and how did you settle on that? - screen time *policy*? how did I "settle" on it? Holy overthinking, batman. creating a screen time policy seems unnecessary. Do your kids get regular exercise and time outside? - yes, they spend most of their time outside.
