"They only want to be on their devices - what do I DO?"


Hey Reader,
​​
Today's Question:
​
​“They'd never got off their screens if I didn't MAKE them. How can this even work?”Hey Reader,

Ah... screentime struggles.
You’ve suggested a walk, a project, and a trip to the library.

It seems to always get a “No thanks.”

But their game? They could talk about that for an hour.
Or play from dawn to dusk. (and beyond)

It’s hard not to feel rejected—or worried that you’re supposed to make them stop.
And when you’re frustrated, getting curious about the game may be the last thing you want to do.
​
There’s actually quite a bit to unpack here - and I have a variety of tools that can help you do just that!
The website has a collection of resources: Screens, Gaming & Unschooling​
But if you're really struggling, grab the Unschooling Guide or let's talk! (1:1 or in Creating Confidence!)

I want to help you before this becomes another daily argument.
