Ahhh the annual argument.

For us, anyway.

My 14 year old can't put his phone down, therefore I have to put a screen time lock on his phone.

I'm the worst mum in the world.

I've set it to 10pm on school nights which I think is late enough!

What do others do?

Seriously? I never policed phone time. If he could be up for school then fair enough. A* a levels and Russel group chemistry degree. Do you want to make this the hill you die on?
A levels and a Russell group degree doesn't make them a decent person or mentally ok though does it? Hmm Doesn't mean they can't still have issues.

10pm here. Apparently I'm mean.
