Has anyone actually had any success with this with teens. DS (13) would be on some sort of screen all day over the summer if allowed. I was thinking of turning it off to his devices until a set amount of other stuff had been done - dog walked / go for a run / reading / helping out.

Also any ideas on how to keep him occupied over summer. He has friends but they tend to have packed schedules of activities organised.

I can't turn it off totally as I'm wfh.

I've had success with 'earn indoor time with outdoor time' so one hour of mucking about in the garden earns one hour screen time...
