What's your question?
So I have lots of trouble staying off screens. Help me!

Mr. Bobcat:
Michael Jackson, thank you for writing to me. It's not easy to be willing to look at yourself and admit that you have a problem. I applaud you for seeing that you need help. Screen time isn't necessarily bad, but you're absolutely right that too much of it can be harmful. Here are a few things that might help. 
  • If you have the ability to limit your screen time using an app, do it! That will take away some of the need to police yourself.
  • Tell your friends and family that you are trying to get away from the screens, and ask them to call you out when you get on the phone.
  • Remove apps, like social media, that are designed to keep you staring at the screen for hours on end.
  • Find alternatives that make you happy away from screens like hanging out with friends in person, playing sports, doing things outside.
Hopefully, these ideas will help. You're doing a great thing. Good luck! Remember, you can always turn to the school counselors for additional help and support as well.
Sincerely,
Mr. Bobcat
