Screen Time
You said 30 minutes. It's been an hour. Nobody noticed.
You said 30 minutes. It has been an hour. Nobody is watching. That is the whole test.
For the child aged 7 to 12 who has been in the exact moment: the timer went off, nobody noticed, and you get to decide what to do. Also for caregivers building self-regulation and honesty around media use.
The Name It First Experience
The rule was 30 minutes. But the show was not over. And then another one started. And now it has been an hour and nobody noticed and you could keep going. In Screen Time, you choose what happens next. Do you stop and say something? Do you keep going and hope nobody checks? Each path leads somewhere different. Your Screen Time Agreement names what you chose when nobody was watching and what you will do next time. Your Screen Time Agreement is stress-tested and signed.
You can opt into 30-, 60-, and 90-day check-ins from your account. We recommend you do — the point is to see what changed.
Sample questions
- What made it easy to keep going past the limit when nobody was watching?
- What do you think is the difference between following a rule because someone's watching and following it because you believe in it?
- What would YOU do — stop now and say something, keep going, or something else?
Research basis
Grounded in Baumeister's self-regulation research on willpower as a developable capacity, Deci and Ryan's self-determination theory on internalized motivation, and media psychology research on screen time and developing executive function.
