If taking the phone away feels impossible, it may be exactly what your child needs.
Enforcing boundaries with kids will bring a storm—no child says "thank you" when you restrict their screen time. But, when you stand firm, you show your child that you care more about their well-being than their comfort, even if they don't realize it yet. This is really hard! But to have real boundaries and help correct your children, you need the courage to enforce consequences, even when it hurts. This is real love! And you only get so much time in your child's life to effect change and wise choices.
