When we're eating, obviously.

And then before they go to bed, we try not to be on our phones.

If something does happen, we own up to it.

Hey, I'm really sorry.

I need to take this.

Are you guys okay with that?

Or, hey, sorry guys, I really had to take that.

I know it's during this time.

Are you guys good?

Or do you, and if it upsets one of them, I'm like, well, do you forgive me?

Here's why I took that call.

It was kind of important, not more important than you, but also, you know, daddy has a job.

Mama has a job and we have to make sure that these things are done.

And I just think that owning up and communicating, if you have to do something and you do apologize about it, that goes a long way with kids, right?

Yeah, that's a great point.

That's such a great point, Nicole, because we all talk about how social media is destroying America or youth and how phones are taking away from the family.

But really what it is, it's decisions and the choices that we're making surrounding that device that it's not going to make us do it.

The phone doesn't have a heartbeat.

It can't tell me what to do.

It can't tell me to look at it every five seconds, right?
