Simple Farmhouse Life · The Farmhouse Edit: Screens vs. the Village: Why Moms Don’t Really Lack Time | RuthAnn of Homesteading with the Zimmermans · 3 Sep 2026 podcast

When you're on the screens, it helps you become intentional.

And once you you start having that dialogue with yourself.

Then you have all the tools that you need.

So the begin to the beginning homesteader

Back to your question that says they don't have time.

I would simply say every time that that thought pops into your head.

Re you know, chastise yourself and say no, it's not a lack of time, it's a lack of creativity and an addiction to screens.

That's all it is.

Ooh, do you get a lot of pushback for this?

Um so I don't get pushback when I talk about adults and screens.

Here's where I get pushback.

And I get pushback about

And believe it or not, I get pushback from other homeschool moms.

I'm I don't homeschool, right?

But I get pushback from homeschool moms when I say no screens for my children, right?

No screens for anybody, you know, under thirteen or under fourteen.

Absolutely none unless it's family movie time, you know.

And so they'll say, but how are your children gonna learn to manage their screen time?

How are they going to, you know, if they don't play on computers, how are they gonna learn Word, or how are they gonna learn Excel or how are they gonna learn spreadsheet?

How are they gonna cope in college if they don't have any of these skills?
