The best way to get on the same page and set up some guidelines for using technology in your home is creating a family media agreement or a technology contract for your kids to sign. Help each member of your family take accountability for their screen time!
I am so overwhelmed with gratitude lately that I get to be related to my in-laws. I know many aren’t so lucky with in-laws. I’ve heard some crazy, nutty stuff which makes me sad. But I have to write about how much I love these guys. Cause I thank my lucky stars on a daily…
