It's one thing to worry about your child, it's another thing to be able to identify the root cause and usually, the cause of a child spending hours on the phone is boredom. Funny enough, some parents make the mistake of giving their children's phone just so they're not bored. So instead of rushing to find a solution, respond by helping your child learn to think about what to do when bored.
Engage your child in the activities they enjoy doing. For some children, it's playing soccer in the garden, others colouring or drawing, for another, is singing or dancing, another could also be cooking, skating, planting, role-plays and so on.
Another thing you need to understand as a parent is to note what specific times your child uses the phone and for how long?
The next step is to support your child and remember that you are the most important person in your child's life, so being intentional about how you do things will also help.
As a parent, it is important to have a conversation with your child about phone. Say things like "I noticed you're always on the phone, why do you do that?"
Dear intentional parents, it is not a mistake that your child needs you because you are full of wisdom and that is what your child needs not information because there’s information everywhere.
