How to Help a Child Learn to Manage Brain Stealers

It's okay to let your brain lock into something just for fun. It's just best to do so with your own permission, not being at the whim of your brain and its cravings. If you see that you spend a good two hours on social media a day and that doesn't sit with you, then schedule the time you will allow your brain to be stolen by social media. For example, no phones during worktime is my favorite rule - when it's work time. Your child can choose if his phone goes in his back pack or on your desk, but it's not allowed during work time. The schedule says it. Sorry.
