It’s that time again… School’s back in session! And in the middle of that busy morning rush hour, you hear: “But I was just winning this game!”
Sound familiar? đ
Summer vacation was relaxingâa little more Netflix here, a little extra gaming time there. But now that school’s back, it’s time for the annual “screen time negotiation” with your child.
You know, that moment when you think: “How did our agreements go again?” while your child already has three different arguments about why watching YouTube is actually homework. đ
Plot twist: Instead of immediately acting like the screen time sheriff, sit down with your child / teenager. Ask them what they think is fair. You’ll be amazed at their answers! Children are often much more reasonable than we think (yes, really! đ).
Making new agreements together = less hassle, more understanding! đ€
So print this Checklist quickly, make agreements together, and let’s start this new school year!
