Yeah.
Yeah, absolutely.
Yeah, but that was an interesting story.
My oldest daughter is 22, married.
My son's 20 in the Army.
My youngest daughter just turned 18.
And Jonathan Haidt has done some incredible work.
Yeah, great book.
Yeah, the screens and everything else.

Right.
When our kids started to get to the age where they were driving, we wanted them to have phones to be able to contact us.
But one of the things that we did, and we didn't do it perfectly, but I'm happy with what we did.
We told our kids, look, you don't own a phone.
I own a phone, and I'm letting you use the phone.
And because we taught our kids about property rights, they understood that if I want to see your phone, I'm asking to see my phone, not yours.
Ah.
And so it changed the mindset, right?
Like it's, I don't get to yell at mom and dad for invading my privacy because no, no, no, my job is to protect you.
