  • Challenge Your Teen to Reduce Screen Time

    Challenge Your Teen to Reduce Screen Time

    Teens spend an average of seven hours per day staring at a digital device of some sort for entertainment. That's on top of time spent with screens for school. And it doesn't leave your teen with much time for assignments, reading and family time.

    It's nearly impossible for today's teens to eliminate screen time from their days. But they can learn to monitor their screen time responsibly.

    To help:

    • Encourage your teen to spend one week keeping a personal log of the daily amount of time spent on social media, texting, web surfing, playing games and watching TV and videos. If your teen uses more than one screen at a time, count the time twice.
    • Challenge your teen to reduce recreational screen use the following week.
    • Suggest positive alternatives to screen media, such as reading, chatting with friends and family in person or exercising.

    Your teen may be surprised at how much can be accomplished in the extra screen-free time!

  • Poor grades? Try an alternative to grounding

    Many families respond to poor grades by taking away extracurricular activities like school sports and clubs. But school counselors warn that when students are "grounded" in this way, many who once enjoyed school stop liking it. And they may fill their time with much riskier activities. Evaluate your teen's schedule to make sure it's balanced. Then, try an alternative to grounding, such as requiring your teen to put in an hour of study for every hour spent on extracurricular activities. https://tpitip.com/?35bY18608
