“The windows of time to use it arent very long between leaving for school in the morning and time before bedtime when we get home. I have loosened restrictions in last couple months and both kids are actually less obsessed with it now that it doesnt have firm rules.”

- Community Mom

Isn't it funny how that works? Sometimes loosening up a bit actually makes them less focused on it! You're doing a great job balancing everything! - Danielle 😊
