5 effective ways to cut back your child's screen time

 We are all compelled by social media to reduce our child's screen time strictly. But have most of you asked yourself why that is necessary. Children have a high learning capacity when young, and currently, tech is booming. Follow me on this. Adults struggle to learn web design, animations, and other ways to make money using tech, so why not let them acquire the skills at a younger age?

 

The big question is, why limit screen time when you can use it to help your child learn the basic skills of their generation? Your child won't grow up to knitting sweaters and seat covers like you did. He'll grow into an era in which computers knit your seat cover, brush your teeth, and clean your house. My point is, with the proper guidance, your child stands to gain a lot from all the screen time.

 

You can sign him up for coding, web design, and math classes. These are not the only skills your child can learn. Your child will grow up with these fundamental skills and still be a doctor or lawyer. So, before dismissing screen time, please find out how it can help your child.

 

Nonetheless, here are a few tips on reducing your child's screen time.

1.      1.  Engage your child

After school, weekends, and holidays should mainly involve engaging with your child. Give your child full attention by playing with them and engaging them in other activities around the house. But honestly, who has the headspace to deal with four children for the whole summer. You should do it if you intend to cut back that screen time.

 

2.       2. Be realistic

Seriously, if your children already spend less than an hour of screen time, why cut more time? Secondly, if they are learning essential skills on the computer, why deny them the knowledge?

 

3.      3.  Be accountable

It would help if you led by example. Don't pressure your kids to cut back on screen time and spend most of your time on your phone. That's setting a bad precedence.

 

4.     4. Create phone-free zones

For example, encourage your kids to leave their phones in their rooms during meal times. The dining area and kitchen become phone-free zones, and your family can bond during those times.

 

5.      5.  Go outside

Occasionally, put down all phones, go outside and take a stroll to increase endorphins. That will boost the happiness, brain function, moods, and physical health of your children and you.

 

In conclusion, tech isn't necessarily a bad thing. Learn its advantages as well.

How to get a guy to like me.

 

First, congratulations on noticing a man and taking it upon yourself to get them. Curse the stereotypes. Women can pursue men and be successful at it. The secret, however, is to make it seem like they are the ones seeking you. I am not talking about playing hard to get. That is old-fashioned, and you'll only come out looking like a fool. Times have changed, and so have our tactics.

Here are a few things to consider doing.

Focus on you

Many are wondering why focusing on yourself helps get a man. Girls, it's the soul of getting that man. Men often like beautiful things and will want them more if they feel jealous of the possibility of another man keeping them pretty. They will want to steal you. Go to the salon every two weeks or three to get your hair done. Do mild makeup that highlights your features. Maintain your nails, and dress comfortably and accordingly. Note that I didn't specify how to dress; you need to be comfortable in your clothing to pull this off. Finally, walk with grace; I don't mean swaying your hips.

Don't be shy

Men of this century want to marry the shy but date the outspoken. It's okay to be soft-spoken, but first, be cheerful and welcoming. Create an ambiance of comfort when talking to him. During the conversation, talk about things you are confidently versed in to bring out your intellect. However, do not dwell so much on it. Give them a taste of your intelligence and plenty of foolishness. Yes, talk about mild topics. These topics are fun and will draw him to your funny side. 

Laugh and smile a lot

Watch out for places where he likes hanging out. Do not be a stalker. Once or twice is enough for him to notice you. As you enter the establishment, with a few of your friends, the first thing to do is capture his attention briefly and lock eyes, then girlishly smile. That should only take a second. Then proceed to ignore him most of the time completely. As you talk with your friends, gently laugh and smile a lot. He is watching, so don't look to confirm.

Be warm

If an opportunity presents himself and he finally asks you out on a date, don't flirt uncontrollably. Focus on making small talk, touch him gently and slightly. However, a good man should be respecting, and if he demonstrates aggressive behavior, you should quit while you are still safe. Wanting a man shouldn't be a reason enough to let them disrespect your body, and as a woman, you will notice signs on the first date. Naturally, when you see red flags, your crush will diminish immediately. Once that happens, don't think twice. Find another crush.
