most happy and healthy kids have a unique desire to learn and trying to suppress that is unhealthy

things like screen time, finish your plate, etc

screen time is just a limit on time to learn if the kid is using it for the right purposes which you should teach them to

“finish your plate” I was never told that as a kid and I devour anything that is given to me

    Well for one thing, those are 12 hours where you’re not moving whatsoever. Going outside, doing sports, talking to people in real life etc are all important for our physical and mental health.

        …And you’re constantly looking at that screen while moving? Obviously, nobody would count riding a bike with a speedometer screen as “screen time”.
