[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It depends on which kid I'm punishing. For my older teens, restricting their phones is what yields results. In fact, I haven't had to punish either in a really long time. For my middle schooler, taking away video games and iPad time is what works for him. For my youngest, who doesn't care much about screens and doesn't have a phone, I take away books. Parents gasp when I say this, but a book to her is like a video game or iPad to their kids. She's a bookworm, homebody so an effective punishment for her is no books and having to go outside and play. [/quote] we take away books sometimes, too. I think it also helps identify them as desirable. [/quote]
