Limiting screen time does sond like a good way to go, Mindy. It's soemihtng we've always done, though it was never a deliberate strategy, just soemihtng we did right from the start. But I think it might be because I am a bit noise-sensitive: I don't manage well when there is too much background noise, so the TV tends to stay off unless there is soemihtng we specifically choose to watch. Also, it got easier when e children got older and much more able to engage in other activities by themselves, instead of me supervising them or having to do it with them. There's a real age and stage dimension to this.Ditto with family dinners it's agreat way to go. It has been a ritual in our house since the children were big enough to sit in highchairs. A messy ritual early on, but a good one.Regarding teachers and managing classroom behaviour, it hasn't been an issue for us, but we have had to make a big effort with some teachers to get them to work with the particular ways our daughters were doing things, rather than expecting them to be like the other kids. This happened with my younger daughters and their reading, where they were struggling to learn to read, and the mistakes they were making weren't standard mistakes, so the standard solutions didn't apply. The usual story, I suppose, common to every profession: some excellent teachers, some perfectly good, and others there just to do enough to collect their pay.Best wishes for keeping up with the changes. I guess that it may take some time toned in, like maybe the rest of the term. A word of advice, if I may I guess that school holidays may be a time to slacken off and relax a little, which is a jolly good thing, but it may be worth returning to school routines a few days before they are due to go back, if possible.
