[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What about calling a meeting with him, you, and your husband, and just asking him in a heartfelt way to please be honest with you both about his watch-activities? [/quote] The kid’s brain isn’t fully developed, this is so stupid. And if he has ADHD (like me and my daughter) impulse control is so very much harder. The guardrails for kids need to be EXTERNAL, not internal. [/quote] Kids brains (especially boys) don’t fully develop until around age 25. So I would hold off on allowing him to have that watch, until he surpasses that age.[/quote] Yeah, how about you hold on to that watch until he gets married and then hand that watch to your DIL, so that she could put controls and restrictions on it? Some parents here sound completely unhinged. [/quote] WAIT! But how is he going to get married if his watch gets taken away when he talks to girls? No grandkids for OP! [/quote]
