Kids will do what you do, so if you’re spending time feeding your brain dopamine by using your phone they will do the same.

The best gift you can give a kid is your time. And if you need to use your phone, explain why (“I’m lowering the volume on the stereo” or “I’m starting the heat cycle in our car”).

It’s not easy, but you’re their role model - so stay true to your own ideals and you’ll ace it!

There is no time for yourself, you're a parent now.

My home workshop is basically a dump for random things at this point... and it's gonna stay like that for a while.

I've definitely had to "re-wire" myself. The phone is too convenient to pick up! I have some hobbies that I have gotten back into, like reading and drawing.

My child is maturing enough so I can get more into my more involved hobbies, like woodworking. (I considered picking up 3D printing or sewing, but one step at a time lol.)

We need this too. When we have a somewhat long drive I usually do all the driving because my wife hates it but she’ll sit there telling our kid she (our daughter) can’t watch the iPad while she (my wife) plays on her phone.

Just read Shakespeare instead you know you want to
