[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree with you, OP, it is so tough. I believe this is why many kids are "over-scheduled" with sports/music/club/etc activities -- because parents are trying to keep them off the darn video games and phones. I'm a high school teacher, and when the high schoolers are "hanging out" with one another, they are really just watching videos and looking at social media on their phones. So I don't think the problem goes away in high school. Maybe the teens are not playing video games like Minecraft and Fortnite anymore, but they sure aren't getting any less "screen time."[/quote] I have what you would call an overscheduled kid. We'd love that they do less but his choice and we will support it. It has nothing to do with video games or phones. I am more flexible because they do so much every day and aren't just sitting home. Mine would do more if we agreed but we are going 6 nights a week and one day two activities.[/quote]
