[quote=Anonymous]When we were teens, technology was definitely an issue that parents of kids just a little older than us didn't have to deal with (I'm in my mid 20s, brother now in his early 20s). We obviously had no iPhones, tablets, etc. but internet was a big issue when we hit middle and high school. My mom cracked down by setting a timer that went off at midnight on the router. She said that if we couldn't get our homework done by midnight, it was our own damn fault. There were other consequences (grounding, no car use, etc.) But eventually my parents also had to let us learn from our own mistakes a little too. Both of us ended up with less than perfect transcripts, but never screwed up to the point where we couldn't get into college.[/quote]
