[quote=Anonymous]I think your consequences sound good but go for longer than a few days. You could be dealing with a serious addiction. I'd recommend spending a good amount of time scouring that phone to see what it is that was so important for her to keep doing. When she gets it back, start with bare minimum calling and texting, no web browser, no apps and no ability to install them. Set it in black and white mode so it's less addictive. Set a time limit so it can only be used for 1 hour or less per day and only in hours after school and well before bedtime. She needs to sign a contract with you that you review regularly that spells out all the rules. That's the consequence for "forgetting" the rule. We do the Tech Shabbat with no phone from Friday evening to Saturday evening. My kid would be reviewing the rules and resigning the contract every Saturday to get the dumbed down phone back [/quote]
