[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Keep the devices out of the house as long as possible. When you do have them, set a fixed schedule and don't deviate.[/quote] This is a great recipe for obsessed kids who have no self regulation skills. [/quote] Disagree (NP). The problem with screens is that most kids CAN'T self-regulate, or at least not well (heck, neither can many adults). We also delayed, and limit screen time to 30-60 mins after activities/homework - before dinner, and they really do well with the schedule and don't whine about it at other times. We'll do some TV/movie nights too, but that is more a whole family affair. [/quote]
