WEBVTT - Device Detox  

0:00:00.040 --> 0:00:01.800
<v Speaker 1>This morning Hair on the Mojo on the morning show,

0:00:02.800 --> 0:00:05.360
<v Speaker 1>Shannon's doing something with her kids, a little parenting thing

0:00:05.400 --> 0:00:08.520
<v Speaker 1>with her kids that it just recently bit her in

0:00:08.560 --> 0:00:09.000
<v Speaker 1>the ass.

0:00:09.080 --> 0:00:11.280
<v Speaker 2>This is so true. And by the way, this did

0:00:11.320 --> 0:00:13.760
<v Speaker 2>not stem from a punishment. I actually have to give

0:00:13.760 --> 0:00:18.200
<v Speaker 2>my ex husband the credit for this, because he started it.

0:00:18.280 --> 0:00:22.080
<v Speaker 2>But we are now in week four of a device

0:00:22.760 --> 0:00:26.920
<v Speaker 2>detox with our kids, Lucy and Smith, and they don't

0:00:26.920 --> 0:00:29.120
<v Speaker 2>have phones, but they do have iPads, and they do

0:00:29.200 --> 0:00:32.600
<v Speaker 2>have Apple Watches. And even though they had all the

0:00:32.640 --> 0:00:35.360
<v Speaker 2>limits the screen time blah blah blah, it was still

0:00:35.400 --> 0:00:38.840
<v Speaker 2>we were still finding that they were like getting really

0:00:38.880 --> 0:00:43.279
<v Speaker 2>addicted to being on and around these devices, so we

0:00:43.360 --> 0:00:47.919
<v Speaker 2>totally took them away cold tur Rs. So watches, there

0:00:47.920 --> 0:00:50.360
<v Speaker 2>really are no rules. They can have them on all

0:00:50.400 --> 0:00:52.599
<v Speaker 2>the time. There's really no apps on there other than

0:00:52.760 --> 0:00:56.440
<v Speaker 2>they can text and call us. Which actually I kind

0:00:56.440 --> 0:00:58.240
<v Speaker 2>of missed the watches because it's nice to know where

0:00:58.280 --> 0:01:00.480
<v Speaker 2>they are when they're like out and playing in the neighborhood.

0:01:00.200 --> 0:01:03.120
<v Speaker 3>But you miss them. They still have the watches though,

0:01:03.160 --> 0:01:03.680
<v Speaker 3>but or no.

0:01:04.400 --> 0:01:05.200
<v Speaker 4>They still have them.

0:01:05.560 --> 0:01:07.880
<v Speaker 2>Dad has them though right now, so I don't even

0:01:07.880 --> 0:01:10.479
<v Speaker 2>have them in my possession. Same thing with the iPads,

0:01:10.520 --> 0:01:14.959
<v Speaker 2>and the iPads had it's called downtime, so they shut

0:01:15.040 --> 0:01:19.600
<v Speaker 2>off from eight to eight eight pm to eight am,

0:01:19.959 --> 0:01:22.080
<v Speaker 2>and they also both got an hour and a half

0:01:22.160 --> 0:01:24.640
<v Speaker 2>of screen time a day, and so once that screen

0:01:24.680 --> 0:01:28.880
<v Speaker 2>time limit is reached, basically you can't really do much

0:01:29.000 --> 0:01:30.000
<v Speaker 2>on that iPad anyway.

0:01:30.040 --> 0:01:31.160
<v Speaker 3>That's pretty wild.

0:01:31.360 --> 0:01:33.720
<v Speaker 1>By the way, You'll have to either show me or

0:01:34.319 --> 0:01:36.520
<v Speaker 1>have your ex husband show me how to do that.

0:01:36.600 --> 0:01:42.880
<v Speaker 1>And I can put it on my wife's.

0:01:40.920 --> 0:01:41.920
<v Speaker 3>From TikTok me.

0:01:42.160 --> 0:01:43.639
<v Speaker 4>Sometimes I feel like I need it for Instagram.

0:01:44.400 --> 0:01:49.360
<v Speaker 2>It's it's been really nice, and they've been, you know,

0:01:49.760 --> 0:01:53.280
<v Speaker 2>just more engaged around the house and playing outside and

0:01:53.320 --> 0:01:57.880
<v Speaker 2>doing other things and like playing with toys and building legos,

0:01:58.000 --> 0:01:59.160
<v Speaker 2>and it's actually been great.

0:01:59.240 --> 0:01:59.880
<v Speaker 4>It's been great.

0:02:00.080 --> 0:02:00.280
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

0:02:00.280 --> 0:02:03.000
<v Speaker 2>We also nixed YouTube as well, which on the TV,

0:02:03.080 --> 0:02:05.480
<v Speaker 2>which was an issue anyway.

0:02:05.720 --> 0:02:06.680
<v Speaker 4>It bit me in.

0:02:06.680 --> 0:02:10.600
<v Speaker 2>The ass yesterday because Maya Lucy, who's in sixth grade,

0:02:10.919 --> 0:02:15.120
<v Speaker 2>was homesick from school and she's at that age where

0:02:15.200 --> 0:02:18.840
<v Speaker 2>I have somebody who comes in the morning because my

0:02:18.919 --> 0:02:21.760
<v Speaker 2>husband Wes gets up early for work and goes to work,

0:02:21.800 --> 0:02:24.600
<v Speaker 2>so I have somebody that gets the kids up and

0:02:24.720 --> 0:02:27.320
<v Speaker 2>ready for school and drives them both to school, but

0:02:27.600 --> 0:02:32.799
<v Speaker 2>she leaves around nine nine thirty. So Lucy I was like, well,

0:02:33.080 --> 0:02:37.040
<v Speaker 2>she's just gonna sleep all day. But she was going

0:02:37.080 --> 0:02:39.880
<v Speaker 2>to be home for a couple of hours by herself yesterday.

0:02:40.280 --> 0:02:43.240
<v Speaker 2>Normally this is not that big of a deal because

0:02:43.600 --> 0:02:46.160
<v Speaker 2>she has her watch and her iPad and she can

0:02:46.200 --> 0:02:49.680
<v Speaker 2>reach out to me if she needs something, or God forbid,

0:02:49.720 --> 0:02:50.600
<v Speaker 2>there's an emergency.

0:02:51.120 --> 0:02:54.480
<v Speaker 4>Well, no iPad, no watch.

0:02:55.080 --> 0:02:57.640
<v Speaker 2>Like I said, her dad still has all of those

0:02:57.720 --> 0:03:00.960
<v Speaker 2>items at his house. So I'm like, I cannot leave

0:03:01.000 --> 0:03:04.519
<v Speaker 2>her home alone with no way of getting in touch

0:03:04.520 --> 0:03:08.079
<v Speaker 2>with me. So Wes had to grab one of our

0:03:08.160 --> 0:03:10.920
<v Speaker 2>old do you guys have like dusty old iPhones that

0:03:10.960 --> 0:03:14.040
<v Speaker 2>are just in a drawer somewhere, and he had to

0:03:14.040 --> 0:03:17.680
<v Speaker 2>dig one out, fix it so that it worked properly,

0:03:17.760 --> 0:03:20.080
<v Speaker 2>turn it on, charge it, and that's what we gave

0:03:20.160 --> 0:03:23.240
<v Speaker 2>her for yesterday in case.

0:03:22.960 --> 0:03:24.040
<v Speaker 4>She needed to reach out to me.

0:03:24.080 --> 0:03:28.079
<v Speaker 2>So I'm like, this little device detox that we were

0:03:28.080 --> 0:03:32.160
<v Speaker 2>doing it really got me good yesterday because I actually

0:03:32.200 --> 0:03:32.680
<v Speaker 2>needed it.

0:03:33.120 --> 0:03:35.680
<v Speaker 1>You know what you needed there actually more so than

0:03:35.720 --> 0:03:39.320
<v Speaker 1>that device that you had to go find the good

0:03:39.360 --> 0:03:42.800
<v Speaker 1>old fashioned home phone, which they say that they're coming back.

0:03:43.520 --> 0:03:45.840
<v Speaker 1>They said that they went away about a year and

0:03:45.880 --> 0:03:47.760
<v Speaker 1>a half two years ago, and now they're coming back

0:03:47.800 --> 0:03:50.920
<v Speaker 1>because people are starting to realize, especially with what happened

0:03:51.040 --> 0:03:55.880
<v Speaker 1>yesterday where everything Amazon and all went away, people had

0:03:55.920 --> 0:03:58.880
<v Speaker 1>no way to do certain things. So in some places

0:03:58.920 --> 0:04:01.080
<v Speaker 1>there was people that you know, we're stranded with that.

0:04:01.320 --> 0:04:04.680
<v Speaker 1>But now also like with security stuff, people are worried

0:04:04.680 --> 0:04:08.160
<v Speaker 1>that they're homes they're putting like robbers are coming to

0:04:08.200 --> 0:04:11.440
<v Speaker 1>the people's homes and doing like cell phone blocking or

0:04:11.480 --> 0:04:15.160
<v Speaker 1>something like that.

0:04:12.240 --> 0:04:18.520
<v Speaker 5>That's at the loop. That is what's she saying. When

0:04:18.560 --> 0:04:20.920
<v Speaker 5>she saw that os iPhone, she was.

0:04:20.880 --> 0:04:24.960
<v Speaker 4>Like, we can I have this even after being sick.

0:04:25.000 --> 0:04:27.599
<v Speaker 2>I'm like no, Well, she just wants a phone so

0:04:27.680 --> 0:04:30.760
<v Speaker 2>bad And I'm mean mom because she's not getting a

0:04:30.760 --> 0:04:32.360
<v Speaker 2>fun So I.

0:04:32.320 --> 0:04:34.279
<v Speaker 1>Want to talk about First off, I want to ask

0:04:34.320 --> 0:04:36.600
<v Speaker 1>you a question. Have you ever had have you ever

0:04:36.680 --> 0:04:39.200
<v Speaker 1>had something you know like this by chaining the ass

0:04:39.200 --> 0:04:39.480
<v Speaker 1>Like you.

0:04:39.480 --> 0:04:42.719
<v Speaker 4>Go all right, no more TV for a week, and

0:04:42.720 --> 0:04:44.040
<v Speaker 4>then you're like I.

0:04:44.000 --> 0:04:47.200
<v Speaker 3>Want to watch TV. Yeah, and you got to you

0:04:47.279 --> 0:04:48.320
<v Speaker 3>got to live by their rule.

0:04:49.560 --> 0:04:53.080
<v Speaker 1>I want to know, tell me about the device uh

0:04:53.360 --> 0:04:54.080
<v Speaker 1>detox thing?

0:04:54.480 --> 0:04:56.920
<v Speaker 3>So they only are allowed how much time again.

0:04:57.440 --> 0:05:00.320
<v Speaker 2>Well right now, zero but normally an hour and half

0:05:00.560 --> 0:05:01.599
<v Speaker 2>and then it shuts off.

0:05:02.440 --> 0:05:05.440
<v Speaker 1>So an hour and a half and that's usually used

0:05:05.480 --> 0:05:08.000
<v Speaker 1>from the time they come home from school till whenever.

0:05:08.320 --> 0:05:11.680
<v Speaker 2>They could use it whenever, because it doesn't the time.

0:05:11.720 --> 0:05:13.039
<v Speaker 2>It doesn't have to be an hour and a half

0:05:12.920 --> 0:05:13.760
<v Speaker 2>if they if they.

0:05:13.640 --> 0:05:16.000
<v Speaker 1>Have school work and their schoolwork requires them have to

0:05:16.040 --> 0:05:18.160
<v Speaker 1>be online, does that include some of that hour and

0:05:18.200 --> 0:05:18.719
<v Speaker 1>a half or no?

0:05:19.040 --> 0:05:21.560
<v Speaker 2>So if they Smith is in second grade, he doesn't

0:05:21.560 --> 0:05:23.840
<v Speaker 2>have any school work on the computer at home, Okay,

0:05:23.920 --> 0:05:26.480
<v Speaker 2>if Lucy does. She has a device that was given

0:05:26.480 --> 0:05:28.440
<v Speaker 2>to her by school. It was like a chromebook or

0:05:28.480 --> 0:05:32.000
<v Speaker 2>whatever it's called. She has a computer, yeah, that she uses,

0:05:32.040 --> 0:05:34.480
<v Speaker 2>but it's only that she can only have a time

0:05:34.760 --> 0:05:35.400
<v Speaker 2>cool stuff.

0:05:35.440 --> 0:05:38.520
<v Speaker 1>Okay, yeah, all right, which, by the way, Lucy will

0:05:38.600 --> 0:05:41.200
<v Speaker 1>learn how to hack that, because Luke figured that thing

0:05:41.200 --> 0:05:44.680
<v Speaker 1>out right away. And you say that this has actually

0:05:44.720 --> 0:05:46.840
<v Speaker 1>been a thing that has been positive. What do you

0:05:46.880 --> 0:05:48.640
<v Speaker 1>see in your kids since they've been doing this.

0:05:49.120 --> 0:05:52.240
<v Speaker 2>I mean, like I said, they are playing outside, they're

0:05:52.240 --> 0:05:54.240
<v Speaker 2>playing with their friends, they're doing other stuff in the house.

0:05:55.839 --> 0:05:57.960
<v Speaker 3>Are they Are they missing it at all?

0:05:59.120 --> 0:05:59.400
<v Speaker 6>Yeah?

0:05:59.440 --> 0:06:02.680
<v Speaker 2>And I think there has to be there has to

0:06:02.720 --> 0:06:04.919
<v Speaker 2>be like we have to introduce it back and I

0:06:05.000 --> 0:06:08.520
<v Speaker 2>have to talk to their dad about it, because for Lucy,

0:06:08.600 --> 0:06:12.760
<v Speaker 2>for example, she doesn't have a phone, and so it

0:06:12.960 --> 0:06:15.800
<v Speaker 2>was a way for like she she went to school

0:06:15.880 --> 0:06:18.120
<v Speaker 2>last week and she was like, Mom, I didn't know

0:06:18.200 --> 0:06:20.760
<v Speaker 2>that all the girls in my class were wearing I

0:06:20.760 --> 0:06:22.880
<v Speaker 2>don't even know it was like pink or something red.

0:06:23.000 --> 0:06:25.560
<v Speaker 2>They were like wearing something specific one day, and she

0:06:25.640 --> 0:06:28.360
<v Speaker 2>felt really left out because she wasn't able to go

0:06:28.400 --> 0:06:30.039
<v Speaker 2>on there before she went to bed to just like

0:06:30.160 --> 0:06:32.560
<v Speaker 2>catch up with everybody and see And I'm like, okay,

0:06:32.760 --> 0:06:36.840
<v Speaker 2>that does kind of stink. Yeah, So there has to

0:06:36.880 --> 0:06:39.680
<v Speaker 2>be a happy medium do it somewhere. But the detax

0:06:39.720 --> 0:06:44.359
<v Speaker 2>in itself has been really nice because I had noticed

0:06:44.400 --> 0:06:47.400
<v Speaker 2>that they like, their behavior totally changes when you're like, okay,

0:06:47.440 --> 0:06:49.400
<v Speaker 2>it's time to put away the iPad or whatever.

0:06:49.600 --> 0:06:52.520
<v Speaker 1>Not to be not on Lucy's side, because I'm always

0:06:52.560 --> 0:06:56.479
<v Speaker 1>on Lucy's side, But wouldn't that mean that she needs

0:06:56.520 --> 0:07:02.440
<v Speaker 1>to use her time wisely? Don't use so don't empty

0:07:02.520 --> 0:07:07.120
<v Speaker 1>the tank on your device time? Uh, and understand that

0:07:07.200 --> 0:07:08.960
<v Speaker 1>you got to use it wisely so that you.

0:07:09.080 --> 0:07:11.880
<v Speaker 2>That's when it missed the that's it's but she's had

0:07:11.960 --> 0:07:15.080
<v Speaker 2>zero so she hasn't been her own month because we're

0:07:15.120 --> 0:07:15.680
<v Speaker 2>doing the detox.

0:07:15.800 --> 0:07:17.360
<v Speaker 1>No, I no detox, But I said, you said you're

0:07:17.360 --> 0:07:18.880
<v Speaker 1>eliminating it to like an hour and a half.

0:07:18.880 --> 0:07:21.720
<v Speaker 2>That was before. That's what it was before she had

0:07:21.760 --> 0:07:22.920
<v Speaker 2>an hour and a half of time.

0:07:22.960 --> 0:07:25.680
<v Speaker 1>And then okay, wait a second, so device detox. When

0:07:25.720 --> 0:07:27.840
<v Speaker 1>you say device detox, I thought it was the hour

0:07:27.880 --> 0:07:31.080
<v Speaker 1>and a half a prison there, dad has.

0:07:31.280 --> 0:07:33.160
<v Speaker 4>How long are the I don't know.

0:07:33.240 --> 0:07:34.840
<v Speaker 2>I think it was supposed to just be a week.

0:07:35.640 --> 0:07:37.640
<v Speaker 2>And then Andrew, their dad, was like, do you want

0:07:37.680 --> 0:07:39.280
<v Speaker 2>to do it for a week. I was like yeah, sure,

0:07:39.560 --> 0:07:41.560
<v Speaker 2>he said, it's been really great for us. I'm like, okay,

0:07:42.080 --> 0:07:43.000
<v Speaker 2>now we're at a month.

0:07:43.080 --> 0:07:44.600
<v Speaker 3>Don't you think the hour and a half thing is

0:07:44.720 --> 0:07:45.640
<v Speaker 3>enough of a detox?

0:07:45.720 --> 0:07:48.000
<v Speaker 1>Not that I'm trying to judge to your guys' parenting,

0:07:48.320 --> 0:07:51.040
<v Speaker 1>but an hour and a half for these for your kids.

0:07:50.880 --> 0:07:53.440
<v Speaker 4>Well, a detex isn't forever. It's a detox.

0:07:53.640 --> 0:07:55.840
<v Speaker 2>So I think a month has been good and I

0:07:56.280 --> 0:07:58.760
<v Speaker 2>do think that they should get them back next week. Yeah,

0:07:59.520 --> 0:08:01.640
<v Speaker 2>what happened in his house happens in his house.

0:08:01.720 --> 0:08:02.440
<v Speaker 4>My house is different.

0:08:02.640 --> 0:08:05.240
<v Speaker 3>I could do it, bro, I couldn't. Well, I can

<v Speaker 10>Like we can set it for like thirty minutes to

0:11:12.720 --> 0:11:15.480
<v Speaker 10>an hour and a half to six hours, but I

0:11:15.559 --> 0:11:16.360

0:11:22.800 --> 0:11:25.559
<v Speaker 9>Time, and that's all you get. After that, their phone

0:11:25.559 --> 0:11:28.719
<v Speaker 9>immediately locks and the only thing they can do is

0:11:28.800 --> 0:11:29.600
<v Speaker 9>make a phone call.

0:11:30.040 --> 0:11:31.400
<v Speaker 3>I'm so glad that everything.

0:11:31.880 --> 0:11:33.880
<v Speaker 1>I'm so glad my parents couldn't even figure out how

0:11:33.920 --> 0:11:36.439
<v Speaker 1>to put the time on the VCR because I would

0:11:36.440 --> 0:11:37.960
<v Speaker 1>never my parents would never be able to do this

0:11:37.960 --> 0:11:40.040
<v Speaker 1>because they'd never be able to figure out how they

0:11:40.120 --> 0:11:43.199
<v Speaker 1>do this stuff over being able to put timers on stuff.

0:11:43.840 --> 0:11:47.120
<v Speaker 3>What's going on? Joe, Hey, what's going on?

0:11:47.400 --> 0:11:47.559
<v Speaker 6>Hi?

0:11:47.720 --> 0:11:48.240
<v Speaker 3>What's happening.

0:11:48.320 --> 0:11:50.080
<v Speaker 1>I'm just hoping my wife's not listening to this topic

0:11:50.080 --> 0:11:51.960
<v Speaker 1>because I'm going to be on a device detox after

0:11:52.000 --> 0:11:52.520
<v Speaker 1>this thing's done.

0:11:52.559 --> 0:11:53.120
<v Speaker 3>What's going on?

0:11:54.440 --> 0:11:57.440
<v Speaker 11>So we limit our two kids one fifteen one seven

0:11:57.840 --> 0:12:01.160
<v Speaker 11>to forty five minutes a day, but they can earn

0:12:01.280 --> 0:12:04.840
<v Speaker 11>extra time with chores soefically, and there were fifteen minutes.

0:12:04.880 --> 0:12:07.439
<v Speaker 11>If they do dishes, they get twenty minutes. If they

0:12:07.840 --> 0:12:09.959
<v Speaker 11>help clean up the table after dinner, they can get

0:12:09.960 --> 0:12:13.000
<v Speaker 11>fifteen to twenty minutes. And that's how they can earn

0:12:13.120 --> 0:12:15.200
<v Speaker 11>the extra time, and we do it for the next day.

0:12:15.480 --> 0:12:15.920
<v Speaker 3>I like that.

0:12:16.080 --> 0:12:18.839
<v Speaker 11>So like if they help on Monday on Tuesday.

0:12:18.559 --> 0:12:21.840
<v Speaker 1>He basically they got slave labor to get extra time.

0:12:21.920 --> 0:12:25.960
<v Speaker 1>These kids aren't being forced to do all your dirty work. Huh,

0:12:26.360 --> 0:12:27.319
<v Speaker 1>mow the lawns.

0:12:28.120 --> 0:12:29.760
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, we don't let.

0:12:29.760 --> 0:12:32.240
<v Speaker 11>Them do all that much, but yeah, and it it works.

0:12:32.280 --> 0:12:33.240
<v Speaker 3>I actually like them an.

0:12:33.160 --> 0:12:39.000
<v Speaker 11>Incentive for something that especially coming into winter. Like our

0:12:39.080 --> 0:12:41.880
<v Speaker 11>kids once play hockey ones in football were always running

0:12:41.960 --> 0:12:43.520
<v Speaker 11>on the ghost. They don't get a whole lot of screaming.

0:12:43.600 --> 0:12:48.680
<v Speaker 1>Question anyway, do your kids wash dishes? Because I was

0:12:48.679 --> 0:12:50.559
<v Speaker 1>talking to a buddy of mine who's got little kids.

0:12:50.760 --> 0:12:52.760
<v Speaker 1>And when I say little kids, I'm talking like twelve

0:12:52.840 --> 0:12:55.040
<v Speaker 1>years old, thirteen years old, they're not really little. And

0:12:55.080 --> 0:12:58.120
<v Speaker 1>we were talking he's he said that his kids never

0:12:58.200 --> 0:13:01.480
<v Speaker 1>learned how to do a dish before. They don't do

0:13:01.600 --> 0:13:03.520
<v Speaker 1>kids know how to do dishes anymore. They know how

0:13:03.520 --> 0:13:04.600
<v Speaker 1>to rinse it and put it in the dishes.

0:13:08.480 --> 0:13:10.559
<v Speaker 11>Yeah, so the fifteen year old to wash them and

0:13:10.600 --> 0:13:12.199
<v Speaker 11>the seven year old to drive and put them away.

0:13:12.640 --> 0:13:14.040
<v Speaker 3>It's so work, it's so funny.

0:13:14.080 --> 0:13:15.679
<v Speaker 1>I said to him, I go teach them how to

0:13:15.679 --> 0:13:18.160
<v Speaker 1>do it, because I'm telling you, you don't learn how

0:13:18.200 --> 0:13:19.880
<v Speaker 1>to do stuff like that or do the laundry.

0:13:19.960 --> 0:13:21.240
<v Speaker 3>Like, teach them how to do the laundry.

0:13:21.400 --> 0:13:23.480
<v Speaker 1>My kids went away to college, and I'm telling you

0:13:23.559 --> 0:13:25.760
<v Speaker 1>my first one, Joe, he had to call every five

0:13:25.760 --> 0:13:28.960
<v Speaker 1>minutes how to do something by Luke. Actually, man, Luke

0:13:29.000 --> 0:13:31.680
<v Speaker 1>did our taxes for us. What's up Mike.

0:13:33.320 --> 0:13:38.240
<v Speaker 8>Good morning, guys, Good morning. Back when, so back when

0:13:38.240 --> 0:13:40.079
<v Speaker 8>my daughter was like from two to four years old,

0:13:40.160 --> 0:13:42.800
<v Speaker 8>she was an iPad kid wholeheartedly. That's all she did

0:13:42.840 --> 0:13:45.920
<v Speaker 8>was playing an iPad. Watch YouTube kids about chapter four.

0:13:45.960 --> 0:13:49.040
<v Speaker 8>We took that thing away. It is so crazy how

0:13:49.120 --> 0:13:54.160
<v Speaker 8>much no screen time changes your child. Yeah, she's so interactive,

0:13:54.440 --> 0:13:56.920
<v Speaker 8>wants to play with us all the time, do game nights,

0:13:56.960 --> 0:13:59.480
<v Speaker 8>movie nights. Doesn't have tantrums anymore.

0:14:00.960 --> 0:14:02.320
<v Speaker 3>That's cool. That's nice to know.

0:14:02.960 --> 0:14:05.120
<v Speaker 1>That's also birth control because now she's with you all

0:14:05.160 --> 0:14:07.920
<v Speaker 1>the time, you guys can never fornicate together.

0:14:10.679 --> 0:14:11.640
<v Speaker 3>I think it's so smart.

0:14:11.679 --> 0:14:16.200
<v Speaker 1>I'm really honestly, I'm really proud of Shannon and Andrew

0:14:16.320 --> 0:14:18.760
<v Speaker 1>for doing this because I will tell you this as

0:14:18.880 --> 0:14:23.400
<v Speaker 1>parents and obviously their step parents, because I think that

0:14:23.680 --> 0:14:25.960
<v Speaker 1>it's a task on you to do this and follow

0:14:26.000 --> 0:14:27.680
<v Speaker 1>through with it. I mean, there's one thing to take

0:14:27.720 --> 0:14:30.360
<v Speaker 1>the stuff away from them, but it's also a task

0:14:30.480 --> 0:14:33.480
<v Speaker 1>on then trying to explain to them, all right, here's

0:14:33.480 --> 0:14:35.720
<v Speaker 1>what we're going to do now as a family. And

0:14:35.760 --> 0:14:37.440
<v Speaker 1>it's so easy to go to a restaurant and just

0:14:37.480 --> 0:14:39.720
<v Speaker 1>hand a kid up freaking I go to a restaurants

0:14:39.720 --> 0:14:42.400
<v Speaker 1>sometimes and I look at a table full of you know,

0:14:42.640 --> 0:14:44.280
<v Speaker 1>a mom and a dad and a couple of kids,

0:14:44.600 --> 0:14:47.320
<v Speaker 1>and those kids have not talked to their parents once

0:14:47.400 --> 0:14:49.080
<v Speaker 1>the entire time that they're at that restaurant.

0:14:49.560 --> 0:14:51.560
<v Speaker 2>Now, let me say, I do kind of miss that

0:14:53.960 --> 0:14:56.200
<v Speaker 2>because it is nice to get some time.

0:14:56.280 --> 0:15:05.760
<v Speaker 12>But yeah, what's up, Elizabeth, Hi, good morning morning, first time,
