Screen reduction techniques
Screen reduction techniques
I spend so much effort trying to distract my kid from just asking to watch TV, then as soon as I get some time to myself it's straight onto the TV or video games (or phone). Maybe I need to practice on myself as well?

Kids will do what you do, so if you’re spending time feeding your brain dopamine by using your phone they will do the same.
The best gift you can give a kid is your time. And if you need to use your phone, explain why (“I’m lowering the volume on the stereo” or “I’m starting the heat cycle in our car”).
It’s not easy, but you’re their role model - so stay true to your own ideals and you’ll ace it!
