[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]It's really hard to get the kids off the phone and to engage. Kids just don't know ow how to even if you take the phone away. [/b] Your best bet was to have an activity that didn't involve the phone and use that to get them interacting. With teenage boys I would have nerf guns, laser tag or something. [/quote] 1. It's not hard if you're the adult who owns the home. Just announce there's a no-phones rule and point out where they can put them. 2. So give them a game to play - it'll get them talking. 3. You don't just give up and let them stay buried in their phones. We help them become capable of socializing and be part of the world. [/quote]
