Summary
Details

STOP THE WHINING. THE BATTLES ARE OVER.

Are you tired of feeling like the digital referee in your own home?

Every boundary is a battle.

Every restriction leads to negotiation.

You set limits, they find loopholes, and you end up feeling like the bad guy just for trying to protect their future.

Listen up: You're exhausted because you've been fighting the wrong war.

The enemy isn't the app or the game-it's the quiet erosion of your authority and the insidious dependency stealing your kid's focus and drive.

This isn't a lecture. This is a weapon.

We skip the guilt and soft, permissive nonsense.

This is the definitive playbook you hand to other parents and say, ""Read this.

This is what finally worked."" We're implementing an immediate Authority Reset, turning your home from a digital democracy into a structure of clarity and calm.

Inside this power-packed manual, you'll learn the exact rules that guarantee immediate compliance and long-term independence:

The 2-Rule ""Authority Reset"" that instantly ends screen time negotiation and guarantees parental control without yelling. Why fear-based parenting guarantees your child will lie about their screen use (and the simple trick to make honesty inevitable). The Black-Belt Scripts that handle Level 10 tech meltdowns without you compromising your authority or raising your voice. How to force your child to feel the agony of boredom to unlock their $10,000/Year Creativity Engine The ""One and Done"" Command: How repeating yourself destroys your credibility (and the single line that stops you from negotiating forever). The Hidden Danger of using screens as an 'emotional pacifier' and the 5-step process to teach genuine emotional intelligence instead. The simple contract that links autonomy (like getting their own phone) to demonstrated responsibility,

turning your teen into a pilot, not a passenger

These 20 rules work because they're based on predictable, consistent structure, not arbitrary anger. Get a copy of the book today
