I actually like that sometimes kids have outbursts and insubordination met with a conversation (but still keeping some form of punishment), because sometimes they're having a bad day, sometimes they just got tempted and you can talk about it, and sometimes they just weren't thinking because they're kids.

Everything else I agree with, it's hard for parents to stop their kids from being addicted to their phones when the parents are also addicted to their phones :/

Maybe I should have said 'bargaining,' in the form of 'if you behave now you can have X later.' It's the way you deal with a rogue nuclear state, not a child who is learning social responsibility.

Oh yeah I get what you mean, and I've seen that happen a lot. I just meant along with that, it's good people seem to talk more about why something is bad rather than "because I said so," since it makes it a cooperation instead of a battle.
