[15:00]
Amy:
"I would just say if you... have an honest conversation with him, like, 'Hey, we need you to be present during some of this.'"
[17:07]
The hosts offer practical advice such as establishing designated times for device usage, encouraging in-person interactions, and respecting the teenager's need for personal space while maintaining family engagement.
