- Jtsummers 5y agoThat's why you establish rules and remove the choice. They're kids, you get to do that. No tech until homework is done and the sun has set, barring bad weather days. More screen time available on the weekend. You can also set screen time limits in the OS now, which makes this easier than 33 years ago when I had my first NES (which was only limited because my mother wasn't working for a few years and kicked us out of the house, also we liked running around the neighborhood and town).
