[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote] You need to start parnting from the start, not from tweens/teens. We have no phones during the week; tv and reading are fine after homework is done . Also, 11 year old with a phone? No way. 9th grade, if the grades are reflective of the kids' capabilities. Chores from -- well, since forever. Not a change, just a continuation. We are an active family and would much rather ride bikes or go to the gym , etc than play on (gag) phones.[/quote] Are you raising kids or running a reform school? I have never met one teen (and I know plenty) who would rather ride bikes than be on their phone. Why would you put your kids in a difficult social position if, as you said, grades are fine and chores are done?[/quote] Then maybe it’s you. Mine will gladly get off to ride bikes or another activity with us. [/quote]
