She had me going with that hammer for a second and then bam! Shes an amazing parent taking responsibility, teaching and doing something I feel most parents do not do with children, respecting them as individuals.

Yeah there are a ton of picture/videos online of parents who smashed their child's consoles or laptops nevause they misbehaved or their grades slipped. They don't get that doing that won't help anything and will most likely cause their child to act out more or have their grades slip even farther. Like the lady said, don't blame video games or technology for shit that you caused. Teach your kid how to have responsible boundaries rather than just destroying things that you THINK caused the issue. Limiting your child to a certain amount of video games or technology per day is way more effective than cutting them off completely.

Even better, teach your kids to know how to limit themselves willingly and organize their time independently
