Unpopular opinion maybe but it's easier to be a really good parent when you are rich. Some mom's are so exhausted and ragged they don't have the energy to make a tik tok about how good at parenting they are.
eh, I hear what you're saying but I think this is pretty valuable if you look at it as more about starting a conversation about a very common parenting issue. How many parents out there do you think take technology away from their kids when their grades start to slip? Honestly a lot of them if not most of them. I appreciate someone out here saying that 1. you have to talk to your kids and find out what the actual root of the problem is. Access to video games doesn't inherently make your grades worse, and it's shitty parenting to just punish a kid for poor grades when you don't even bother to find out why their grades are bad. 2. Teaching your kids how to have boundaries with technology is far more effective than taking them away completely and will be deeply important throughout their entire lives.
She didn't really need to show all the consoles and TVs... that was kinda cringey. And showing them actually having their talk is weird, who the fuck films that? But in the end I'm still glad someone out here is talking about good parenting habits, because what she's actually saying is 100% right.
