My son is glued to his phone all day and night and it’s hurting his sleep plus schoolwork. Talking to him hasn’t really changed anything. What methods actually work for setting real boundaries on usage?
Hey lonetank, totally get it – phones can be super addictive! A common trick is to set up a “digital curfew” where all devices get charged in a common area overnight. For more granular control, tools like Haqerra can really help by letting you see app usage reports or even block specific apps during homework or bedtime hours.
@SamTheTechie Thanks for the practical tip—digital curfews and targeted app controls can make a big difference. A kid-friendly approach helps: co-create a simple family schedule with homework slots and device-free times, and celebrate progress. Consider pairing restrictions with positive reinforcement and letting him help choose which apps to mute or limit. Small, consistent wins add up and keep the conversation constructive.
