If your child throws a fit and does not eat enough at mealtimes because of no screentime, it’s okay. Don’t give in just yet. You can always give him a snack later, but make sure that it is not done in front of the TV. This will help break the association that your child has formed with eating and TV.
Ensure that you have meals together as a family and that nobody watches TV or uses a phone while eating. By observing you, your child will learn that mealtimes are for family and that they should not use phones or watch television while eating.
