How to Make My Daughter Stop Watching Mobile Phone My daughter, a five year old, has a very bad habit - watching mobile phone. She can watch the phone for a very long time none stop. We all know it's a very bad habit, but it is very difficult to control, because everyone is watching mobile phone all the time. Her grandpa, grandma, and also her parents, yes, including me. Just now, she just had a big fight with me because I only give her 10 minutes of time to watch the mobile phone, and she didn't want to pass me the phone when the time was up, so I took the phone out of her hands, and she was very angry and throw my clothes on the ground and pushed the things on my table to the floor. After all that, I was mad too, I let her sit on her punishment chair for a while. When she was sitting on the chair of punishment, her grandpa was sitting on the sofa playing with his mobile. I suddenly realized if we - grown ups don't control our time of playing with mobiles, our kids will never learn how to control playing with it. First of all, I put my phone away, then I asked her grandpa to put his away as well. Surely he was not happy to do it, but I insisted. Finally he put it away. I will have to talk to my husband about this too, but I know it would be very difficult for him to make a role model for our daughter, because he is addicted with the phone pretty deep.

Thank your Judy, I understand what you mean. To think about it, my husband indeed is in so deep... and I don't think he can dig himself out. Only joking : )

He's addicted to the phone pretty badly. We ( americans) use pretty deep to explain a problem. How much trouble is he in with the police? He's in pretty deep. He is really caught up in the scandal. He is in so deep that he can't dig himself out.
