More than anything, children need time invested into their development and growth as people. Even with our busy schedules, we should be devoting 30 minutes to an hour to our children daily—not including time spent driving to and from school or extracurricular activities. Whether it’s reviewing homework with an eighth grader or coloring with a toddler, the time should be spent showing them you care about the things in their lives and you want to contribute to their success. Though it’s tough to unplug, it is best to spend this time free of distractions.
