   Should screens be allowed?

   • Kids like consistency – it makes rules much easier to understand (and more likely to be followed). So it makes sense to have some places, or times of the day, where screens are NEVER allowed. You might be on the receiving end of a lot of whinging and moaning at first, but if these rules are non-negotiable, your family should soon accept them.

   Are screen time limits realistic?

   • There’s bags of advice out there for parents when it comes to screen time and the limits we should stick to, but not everybody agrees and some guidelines are, dare we say it, just not realistic if you’ve got an urgent work email to answer and a child who needs entertaining.

   • Not all screen time is equal. Life as a parent would, perhaps, be more straightforward if you could just stick screens in the 'bad' pile and ban them completely.
   • Lead by example. Telling your child they're not allowed to spend too long on Minecraft while never dragging your eyes away from your own Facebook feed is not going to help teach them how they should behave.
   • Have screen-free zones. Kids like consistency – it makes rules much easier to understand (and more likely to be followed). So it makes sense to have some places, or times of the day, where screens are NEVER allowed.
   • Draw up a family agreement. Hot on the heels of the screen-free zones is the family agreement. This is particularly good for older kids, but can also be used with younger children too, so that they know what is and isn't allowed – and what the consequences are if they break the rules.
