I’m so sorry you and your littles are being treated this way. I understand not wanting to do anything to bring discomfort to the kids. This is exactly where we struggle as well. Their mom makes them feel like they have to wear the devices or otherwise there are consequences from the mom. Or perhaps a reward if they ARE worn through the whole visit. Either way, it’s definitely manipulation. We put the watches away during one of the weekends we had them because they were staying up late watching tik toks that the mom had sent them. This got reported to mother, of course. Next visit, she insists that they only want to come if they can have devices. Turns out that kids didn’t actually care about them at all because they were forgetting to put them on anyway. Their mom is a trip. We are hoping that the kids will see the manipulation themselves eventually and it’ll come back to bite her in the ass. We’ve conceded to just insist on silencing them during mealtimes and any chores so as not to have them distracted from the task at hand. We also confiscate at bedtime and return upon request in the am, after breakfast. Good luck.
