And her 58 00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:01,000 Speaker 2: daughter was like, Mom, I don't enjoy going over to 59 00:03:01,040 --> 00:03:04,320 Speaker 2: her house because you know, all she does is stare 60 00:03:04,320 --> 00:03:06,800 Speaker 2: at her phone and her iPad and she's always on 61 00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:09,240 Speaker 2: a video game. Like she's just always on a screen. 62 00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:13,160 Speaker 2: And this particular mom has very limited screen time for 63 00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:15,920 Speaker 2: her kids, so you know, she's like, my kids only 64 00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:18,280 Speaker 2: sit on the on the screen for thirty minutes. Today 65 00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:20,920 Speaker 2: they get thirty minutes of screen time and outside of 66 00:03:20,919 --> 00:03:23,040 Speaker 2: that thirty minutes, they need to be doing other activities, 67 00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:25,520 Speaker 2: which I mean, kudos to you, baby girl. Like in 68 00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:30,320 Speaker 2: today's world, today's technology world, managing the kids screen time, 69 00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:32,760 Speaker 2: I'm sure it's very hard for parents. I don't have children, 70 00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:35,880 Speaker 2: but I have nephews, and yes, I have nephews who 71 00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:39,160 Speaker 2: love their iPad, won't leave home without their iPad or 72 00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:42,760 Speaker 2: you know, are always on their video game or their phones. 73 00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:47,360 Speaker 2: Like it's not you know, I'm not i don't know 74 00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:51,360 Speaker 2: what's right or wrong. I'm not a parent, but you know, obviously, 75 00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:54,600 Speaker 2: in today's world and technology, we wish kids would go 76 00:03:54,640 --> 00:03:57,280 Speaker 2: outside and play more. We wish that they would, you know, 77 00:03:57,440 --> 00:04:01,800 Speaker 2: be more engaging in screen time can be extremely addictive. 78 00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:04,360 Speaker 2: I'm an adult and I love being on my phone. 79 00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:06,920 Speaker 2: I'm always on my phone. I'm always scrolling, I'm always 80 00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:09,960 Speaker 2: looking at some type of social media app. You know, 81 00:04:10,040 --> 00:04:12,119 Speaker 2: a lot of it is for my job, but outside 82 00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:15,480 Speaker 2: of that, my sense of enjoyment, my sense of like 83 00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:17,840 Speaker 2: a day off is me rotting on my couch scrolling 84 00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:19,240 Speaker 2: TikTok and laughing like. 85 00:04:19,160 --> 00:04:20,719 Speaker 1: That's fun to me, you know. 86 00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:24,719 Speaker 2: And so I can understand how screen time can be 87 00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:28,000 Speaker 2: addictive and it could be a problem. So this particular mom, 88 00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:30,640 Speaker 2: she's like, absolutely not, my kids only get thirty minutes 89 00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:33,880 Speaker 2: of screen time. So her daughter stopped going to visit 90 00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:36,839 Speaker 2: the girl and kind of started ghosting her friend, and 91 00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:40,039 Speaker 2: the friend's mom inquired, like, hey, why is she she 92 00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:42,400 Speaker 2: coming over anymore? And why isn't she you know, wanting 93 00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:45,080 Speaker 2: to hang out with my kid my kid anymore? And 94 00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:47,000 Speaker 2: she said she tried to be nice at first and 95 00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:50,400 Speaker 2: just say, hey, you know, I think they're growing apart. 96 00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:52,560 Speaker 2: I think they have different interests. And she was like, girl, no, 97 00:04:52,640 --> 00:04:55,200 Speaker 2: what's the real reason. And the mom was like, okay, 98 00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:56,920 Speaker 2: well she doesn't want to hang out with your daughter 99 00:04:56,920 --> 00:04:58,320 Speaker 2: because your daughter. 100 00:04:58,120 --> 00:04:59,359 Speaker 1: Is a screen zombie. 101 00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:02,320 Speaker 2: And then she just went off and was like, you know, 102 00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:05,960 Speaker 2: be a real parent and stop letting the iPad raise 103 00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:09,360 Speaker 2: your kids. And we just went left from there. And 104 00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:11,320 Speaker 2: so she's like, am I wrong for what I said? 105 00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:14,360 Speaker 2: A lot of people you know, called in and said no, 106 00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:17,120 Speaker 2: she wasn't wrong. Like the mom pressed her for an answer, 107 00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:21,680 Speaker 2: she gave her an answer. I just feel like, and 108 00:05:21,760 --> 00:05:24,719 Speaker 2: this is probably maybe because of like even with my nephews, 109 00:05:24,760 --> 00:05:27,719 Speaker 2: Like I look at my brothers and how they parent, 110 00:05:27,920 --> 00:05:30,760 Speaker 2: and I always have an opinion, you know, but it's 111 00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:32,839 Speaker 2: like I can't even raise this damn dog. 112 00:05:33,520 --> 00:05:35,120 Speaker 1: Like my dog is still. 113 00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:38,919 Speaker 2: Not completely botty trained and he doesn't do you know, 114 00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:42,040 Speaker 2: he's not the perfect dog, and so it's hard to 115 00:05:42,200 --> 00:05:45,240 Speaker 2: judge somebody's parents and skills when you haven't done it. 116 00:05:45,320 --> 00:05:47,040 Speaker 1: So I think I was giving the mom a lot. 117 00:05:46,880 --> 00:05:49,719 Speaker 2: Of grace, like, well, you know, her kid might be, 118 00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:53,880 Speaker 2: you know, have a little social anxiety, or maybe autistic, 119 00:05:54,120 --> 00:05:57,239 Speaker 2: or maybe you know, you don't know the reason. Maybe 120 00:05:57,240 --> 00:06:01,440 Speaker 2: the mom is overworked, or the mom is depressed herself 121 00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:04,520 Speaker 2: and she can't entertain her kids, whatever the situation may be. 122 00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:06,279 Speaker 1: I was just trying to give the lady grace. 123 00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:09,320 Speaker 2: Like, you know, I personally wouldn't have called her kid 124 00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:12,560 Speaker 2: a screen zombie, and you know, I wouldn't have judged 125 00:06:12,600 --> 00:06:15,640 Speaker 2: her for saying, you know, don't let the iPad raise 126 00:06:15,680 --> 00:06:17,160 Speaker 2: your kid. But a lot of parents called in and 127 00:06:17,240 --> 00:06:19,240 Speaker 2: said no, like, you have children, you have to be 128 00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:19,640 Speaker 2: a parent. 129 00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:21,240 Speaker 1: And I'm like, I get that side too. 130 00:06:21,279 --> 00:06:24,080 Speaker 2: So it was a perfect case basically to bring to 131 00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:27,359 Speaker 2: a keiki court because I was torn on it and 132 00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:29,960 Speaker 2: I need I needed to hear the opinions of people 133 00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:33,400 Speaker 2: who have experience and people who just you know, could 134 00:06:34,120 --> 00:06:38,000 Speaker 2: give a valuable insight on it. So all of that 135 00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:41,159 Speaker 2: to say, like, I still feel like, you know, there's 136 00:06:41,200 --> 00:06:43,080 Speaker 2: a way to say things to people, and we can 137 00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:45,680 Speaker 2: always extend grace to people because You just never know 138 00:06:46,160 --> 00:06:52,800 Speaker 2: someone's situation, but you you do, as a parent, need 139 00:06:52,839 --> 00:06:56,440 Speaker 2: to manage your child's screen time because in today's society, 140 00:06:57,040 --> 00:06:59,800 Speaker 2: I even find it hard. And some adults can't even 141 00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:04,040 Speaker 2: make eye contact anymore, Like some adults have an issue, 142 00:07:05,839 --> 00:07:08,400 Speaker 2: you know, holding a conversation. I'm one of those people. 143 00:07:08,520 --> 00:07:11,880 Speaker 2: I can obviously hold a conversation. I'm a certified yapper, 144 00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:16,080 Speaker 2: but I don't enjoy small talk, you know. 145 00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:16,559 Speaker 1: What I'm saying. 146 00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:20,119 Speaker 2: I don't enjoy And maybe it's because of the people 147 00:07:20,160 --> 00:07:22,840 Speaker 2: that I have to have small talk with sometimes I 148 00:07:22,880 --> 00:07:25,000 Speaker 2: know they're like full of shit, so maybe that's why. 149 00:07:25,160 --> 00:07:29,840 Speaker 2: But like you know, I don't necessarily I'm not a 150 00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:31,640 Speaker 2: big talker outside. 151 00:07:31,120 --> 00:07:34,640 Speaker 1: Of I can't say that I do like talking. 152 00:07:34,960 --> 00:07:37,000 Speaker 2: It's you're right, it's just the people that I know 153 00:07:37,040 --> 00:07:40,800 Speaker 2: full of shit anyway. But I know some people, some adults, 154 00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:44,080 Speaker 2: grown ups, who don't who can't hold a conversation, can't 155 00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:47,480 Speaker 2: make eye contact because they're so addicted to their phones 156 00:07:47,480 --> 00:07:48,280 Speaker 2: and to their screens. 157 00:07:48,280 --> 00:07:50,200 Speaker 1: So I get what she was saying. 158 00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:51,760 Speaker 2: I just felt like she could have delivered it a 159 00:07:51,800 --> 00:07:54,400 Speaker 2: little bit more gently, because you just never know what 160 00:07:54,480 --> 00:07:57,560 Speaker 2: another parent or whatever is going through. Or what a 161 00:07:58,120 --> 00:08:00,920 Speaker 2: kid's you know, issues are or what they may be. 162 00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:03,760 Speaker 2: So anyway, that's my take on it.

I don't know about anybody, but for me, 246 00:12:35,120 --> 00:12:40,360 Speaker 2: I look at like Ryan Seacrest, Steve Harvey, I'm I'm 247 00:12:41,320 --> 00:12:43,720 Speaker 2: you know, even Charlotte Mane, I'm my man was, but 248 00:12:43,800 --> 00:12:49,240 Speaker 2: Charlottage and the God Like, these people have multiple jobs 249 00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:53,280 Speaker 2: and they are in multiple places.

Like for instance, I'm sitting here literally on 265 00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:43,280 Speaker 2: my couch recording this podcast into my phone because I 266 00:13:43,360 --> 00:13:47,000 Speaker 2: refused to drop the ball on what's important to me. 267 00:13:48,640 --> 00:13:51,200 Speaker 2: And I couldn't believe that it worked out and I 268 00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:54,040 Speaker 2: pulled it off and I got back.
