[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree completely banking it in high school may not be the best choice and really difficult. But, if not a ban, then what? How dp you keep kids off of screens 24/7 then?[/quote] Most kids are not on screens 24/7. Most kids go to school for the majority of the day, sleep the majority of the night, are involved in extracurricular activities after that, and have homework and jobs. In our experience, that leaves not a lot of time for social screen time. Just enough to keep up with friends, know where the meet up is, and have a social life, whether in person or on line together if no one can go out. If your teen has too much screen time, then your kid just has too much time. Send them out to play if they are tweens, tell them to get a job if they are over 15. A complete ban should not be necessary unless advised so by a doctor for a teen with a developmental disability. If you don't want them on screens, fill the time with something else. [/quote]
