A website for women’s issues has a piece on limits on devices imposed by moms. The feature focuses on a mother who gives her child, 13, a lot of freedom. Her only rules are not using a device at dinner and when going to bed. The mother states this works for her as her child is doing well in school. She mentioned only one social media incident. She does wish she had been more disciplined at times. Further, she recognizes this approach may not be good for other children.

Key Takeaways:

• This current mother’s logic is unquestionably a change of pace from a week ago’s “no screens amid the week” mother.
• Their standards are made particularly to manage the kind of child they have.
• You need to know your child and what they are and you need to expect will commit errors. Will get some part of this off-base.
