I have 2 DD, 12 and 14 and both get on well in school, have friends and apart from usual teen stuff are well behaved.
However I find myself constantly annoyed by their phone use. One does tennis 3 times a week and hockey, the other does tennis once, running twice and soccer twice a week so they are busy, however time at home apart from meals is often spent on screens. We have nighttime rule so none past 9pm, but later over the summer .
Reading, crafts, baking etc are all put aside. I feel like a failure and I feel I am being quite critical of the girls who apart from this, really are good girls.
Am I being overly neurotic or critical and is this just teens ?? I don’t want to be the nothing is good enough mum but am aware I might be heading that way
