New, lots of children, looking for advice
Sally Casey
May 15
Hello! I just joined. My husband and I have ten children and homeschool. Our oldest is 23
and youngest is 3, but 7 are living at home (17, 15, 13, 11, 9, 6, and 3). In the past we
have done screen fasts, and it's high time for another (the last was years ago), but I just
2
don't feel like it's possible. I've always made written plans before and am going to make
one today to share with my husband tonight, and then with the kids soon. I just feel like
our children now are so addicted now. I used the book “Retrain Your Child's Brain” by
Victoria Dunckley before. I'm here looking for any advice you can offer. Thank you!!

This Friday - American Academy of Pediatrics WEBINAR

Loving twin teen life in Kansas City suburbs!
Let’s attend to ensure they are not just talking about how to “guide teens in social media
use” in positive ways but actually helping parents understand that they can say “NO” and
delay social media use in teen years.

Logging Off: Healing the Broken Classroom

Watched this SXSW talk today and thought I’d share. Lisa Cline, Fair Play, shared so
much information and several statistics around EdTech in the classroom. Thought others
might find it helpful. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DF8w4lDrKwA

Hey all. I wanted to share something from my weekend. I went to a relatives catholic
baptism and the priest spent a significant portion of his talk discussing technology use.
He said something along these lines
“I used to advice parents to try and keep their kids sanctity as long as possible, now I
tell them to make sure they remain human. Have them go outside and breathe fresh air,
touch the grass. The enemy is inside”

16.5 year old boy...17 days screen free
4
Connie May
May 12
I decided to detox my son as it’s been a long time coming. The final straw was when I
found inappropriate content on his phone. He won’t talk to me about it at all. On
Thursday, he asked if we could talk about when he could get his game system back and
his face lit up. He didn’t want to talk about anything else though. Today he was in bed all
day and wouldn’t go with us to our family function. He has always gone to these family
functions. He does school at home and only has one in-person friend that he doesn’t see
much. His friend is busy and they maybe see each other once a week sometimes even
once a month. Last week, he saw his friend twice, however he didn’t want to but his
friend came over anyway and I saw a happier child after each visit. In December, an old
friend asked him to do something and my son said he was busy which he was but he
refused to set a different date. The only activity he wants to do with friends is gaming.
The past 17 days he has mainly read books and watched a tv show with this dad or we’ve
had a family movie night. He hasn’t done any schoolwork for 3 weeks. Fall of 2022 he
went back to in-person school and after 6 days he had a meltdown and refused to go
back. Two school years later and he hasn’t accomplished much. This week he just
started going to a youth group. He is refusing to play soccer which is has always played.
At the end of last year, he refused to go to a few games, after learning more I realize that
this was because of the low effort, high reward. My goal is to get him to attend school in
September. Does it sometimes take longer than the 30 days to detox? I plan on
detoxing for 90 days and he has agreed to do a school work placement this summer
which will help keep him busy.

Reclaiming Kids. Reconnecting Families.
*NEW EDITION COMING SOON*
If you want to get serious about fixing your kids' screen overuse, you are in the right
place. After years of research and experience with many families like you, we designed
this one-month Challenge to give immediate relief and a glimpse of what life can be like
without screen struggles. We are so glad you found us!
The ScreenStrong Challenge is the first simple step to reset your kids' screen habits.
For one month, you will replace their video games, smartphones, and social media with
new and old hobbies & interests, life skills, and family connections. Your kids will get a
glimpse of life without screen distractions and will try out new ways to fill their time.
You will get a glimpse of life without screen conflict while rediscovering what it means
to enjoy your kids again. The 30-Day Challenge is just an easy onramp to get you
started. After this first month, you will be motivated to continue to hit the six-month
mark and beyond!
