Parents of young kids pick up their phones an average of almost 70 times a day — often to escape a stressful parenting moment. Here's how to stop using your phone as a pacifier, for you or your kids. ⬇️

Listen. Parents used to be prescribed happy drugs to deal with their kids. And before that, moms were taken away to insane asylums because of their precious offspring. Maybe the problem is a lack of help and social support, not the phone. 🤔

Think about that. That’s all those kids will remember.

Problem solving with technology improves with science.

Wow, I probably pick up my phone 10 times a week!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lol at these articles as if parents never distracted themselves with *something*. Now it is phones, but it’s laughable to think this phenomenon hasn’t happened🙃😒

Lead your children in REAL REALITY

Do what my mom did every summer: Lock us kids out of the house from 7 am until lunch and sit at the kitchen table smoking cigarettes with the neighbor. We put on plays in the garage! ...that she never came to :(

When my daughter was 2, she and her friend had a fight over a full potty in a carpeted hallway. It was a cellphone or wine at that point.

You better be careful when you start calling out people for their behavior that's a good way to be called racist!! And be the victim of manufactured and selective outrage.

No! I refuse. Sent from my iPhone

NPR Choice pageDo not trust facebook... let's be real The problem is not getting them a bank account, the problem is they have no money to put in it so they don't bother. Putting it in Facebook wallet when the company could restrict your access if you violate community standards is a TERRIBLE idea. Stopped reading at 'Facebook' and 'digital currency'... Jesus, people, come on.
