Having lots of fights over when to turn off the phone during the week. Turns out my 14 year old girl wants to Snapchat until all hours of the night and my 14 year old boy just wants to keep gaming until his eyes fall out. I put my foot down and now phones and computer are off at 9 pm and we are playing games until they are tired enough to go to sleep. It has been a rough week.
Parenting is not for the faint of heart. They might not know it now, but they're lucky to have a Dad like you. In hindsight, maybe toddler tantrums were actually easier?
