How to Finally End the Screen-Time Struggle: A 14-Day Reset for Parents Who’ve Tried Everything

🎮 The Screen-Time Struggle Is Real

If you’re a parent of kids aged 7–13, you know the nightly routine:

“Just five more minutes!”
Cue arguments, tears… sometimes a full-blown meltdown.

It’s not that kids are lazy or defiant. Screens are built to hold their attention. When you try to step in, their nervous system reacts like you’re cutting off oxygen. That’s why it feels like war.

🚫 Why Most Approaches Fail

Parents often try:

Taking devices away cold turkey
Adding more rules and restrictions
Threats, bargaining, or bribing

These don’t stick — because kids aren’t part of the solution. Without a system, rules crumble and conflicts spiral.
