Parent: Hey, we wanted to talk to you guys about something important.
Teenager: Uh oh, did we do something wrong?
Parent: No, not at all. We just wanted to discuss setting some reasonable guidelines for using your phones and social media.
Teenager: Oh, okay. What kind of guidelines are you thinking about?
Parent: We think it's important for you to have a healthy balance between screen time and other activities. It's easy to get caught up in social media and lose track of time.
Teenager: Yeah, I can see that. So, what are you suggesting?
Parent: We propose that you limit your social media time to a certain amount each day, maybe an hour or so. And we also think it's important to have technology-free time, like during meals and before bedtime.
Teenager: That sounds reasonable. I guess I can try to be more mindful of my screen time.
Parent: We're not trying to be strict, we just want to help you develop good habits and find a healthy balance. We're open to hearing your thoughts on this too.
Teenager: Thanks for talking to us about this. I'll definitely try to be more conscious of my phone usage.
