I grew up with frequent arguments and spankings, For 13 years that's ALL I knew. In the first few months of my partner and I's relationship, I thought we were going good... (That was obviously just the honeymoon phase) Five months in however, all our triggers unveiled themselves and no longer could our true personality hold us back. We started arguing. It was a painful and confusing period, at times I thought it was the end. But love perseveres 💪 We started working on ourselves, side by side. Don't get me wrong, it was NOT. A skate in the park, Of course the petty arguments still popped up here and there. That's because progress is SLOW. 99% of the time, you're breaking something down and replacing it with something better. When it feels like all hope is lost, remember, you might just still be breaking down your old ways. Don't lose sight of the light at the end of the tunnel, keep pushing no matter what!

1) Send message to inactive users "Hey, I'm a mod for dad's community, I noticed you've been inactive in the community lately, is it because we're boring to you?" Don't directly ask them "Why aren't you interacting" "Is there any reason for this", instead throw a little joke like "is it because you find us boring now?" "Did the group not live up to your expectations?" 2) Send another message "Hey ____, the community would love if you were more active !" 3) Create short video asking users to participate more within the group showcasing what's going on while they're not active.

But don’t worry, like all things, this can be fixed; So let’s go over “ The Do’s and Don’ts of Lowering Your Kids Screen Time “ (From a 17 year old ex-social media addicted kid / soon to be dads perspective) DO: ✅ - Discuss when and why they use social media the most - Set boundaries that fit with above 👆 - Ask if they’ve seen anything interesting or funny - Believe (and let them know) they are capable of doing more productive things in their free time than watching TikTok - Encourage in-person socialisation - even through interacting with them more yourself - Do the same (quit un-social media) - I’ll be honest here, my mum used to spend more time on her phone than me 🤣 - Reward them for lowering screen time DONT: ❌ - Reward them with MORE screen time - Punish them for using their phone - Shame or blame them for their social media usage - Ignore your own social media habits - Set unrealistic expectations (phone off at ‘X’ time or only 1 hour a day etc) - Invade your kid’s privacy - Give up if progress is slow - Neglect the importance of YOU interacting with them face-to-face - Take it too serious :D - We were all kids once 🤷‍♂️ That’s a wrap !

(No matter how big they are) When I would tell my parents "I wanna be a billionaire" They would reply with "You can't even save your own money" (Talking about birthday/christmas money I would blow on whatever toy I obsessed over. - spoilt mofo) It was very discouraging and led me to not give a f*ck in school. (Still got awesome grades 👉😎👉 ) With that said, i'm curious to hear how you spark curiosity in your kids:
