Just curious, when you tried explaining to your child the importance of sleep and negative health impacts of late night social media, what was the reaction?
I’m curious what led to wifi being turned off rather than kid personally convinced to do it.
- acuozzo 5y agoNot OP, but my parents tried that back in 1997 when I was nine. My solution? I'd fake being asleep, wait for them to go to bed, and then sneak over to the computer room and turn it on. I did this nearly every night for a long, long time.
- progman32 5y agoI knew full well as a kid that poor sleep was bad. Between a night owl body and school schedules lacking any compassion or space for significant self development, I felt the trade-off was worth it. Kids are smart, and I've found them responsive when engaged with respect from an early age.
