Because your 15-year-old son knows that he needs to be studying hard.

He knows he needs to be athletic, right?

Because he may have a crush on someone and if he's got acne and he's like severely overweight and doesn't know how to socialize, he's not going to feel good.

Absolutely.

So two things there, right?

The important conversation happens before it turns on and after it turns off.

Your wife stumbled into that.

Yeah.

Right?

Which is beautiful.

And that's the other thing is once children understand, so it's not just kids, right?

So I work with people who are addicted to technology from, you know, who are kids all the way to like seniors.

Yeah.

And the basic problem with all these apps and stuff is that we are not aware of the impact it's having on us.

The moment, what's happening is we are touching a hot stove, but we have lidocaine on our hands, so we're not feeling anything.

Then we wake up the next day and we're like, what happened to my hand?

Yeah, we burned our hand.

Burned, right?

So we're not even aware.

Like, just pay attention to yourself.
