Phones, tablets, consoles, laptops: they are useful, social, and often necessary. They are also one of the most reliable ways to turn a normal evening into an argument. The Screen Rules That Work is a practical guide for families who want calmer days and clearer limits, without constant debates, bribes, or last-minute threats. Anika Solmare shows you how to build screen time rules that you can actually keep, using a boundary-first framework: set expectations before conflict starts, design predictable transitions, and follow through in a way that teaches rather than explodes. You will learn how device handover can become a routine instead of a tug-of-war, how to protect sleep and screens with a plan that reduces sneakiness, and how to set homework and screens boundaries that survive the reality of online schoolwork. For parents dealing with gaming limits, group chats, or endless autoplay, the book offers language, structures, and consequence plans that reduce bargaining and increase trust. This is for parents and carers of children and teens who are tired of repeating themselves, worried about drifting online habits kids are forming, or simply trying to reclaim family time without turning technology into a taboo. You will come away with a clear, repeatable system for family tech boundaries, including what to do when limits are tested, how to handle exceptions without creating loopholes, and how to keep the relationship warm while the rules stay firm. The goal is not a perfect household. It is fewer flare-ups, steadier expectations, and less screen time fights that leave everyone drained.
