Hi, I'm Maddy King, a Teens writer from Australia. I help solve Teens readers'
B
1
. Go ahead and ask right away!
Dear Maddy,
My mum always says I'm
D
2
my phone too much, but she's always on hers too. Every time I mention it to her, she doesn't
C
3
and says I'm just a child, not an adult. I feel very speechless. What should I do?
Linda
Hi Linda,
I understand your
D
4
. Your mum might say you're "just a child"
A
5
she uses her phone for work or housework, which she sees as more "adult". As we all know,
D
6
too much time on smartphones or computers is
C
7
for our eyes. It can make you
B
8
from the real world. She just wants to protect you from these problems, so your mum worries about your phone usage.

However, I think you and your mum should sit down and talk about this
D
9
. You may say
A
10
like, "I feel upset when I am told I'm on my phone too
C
11
. I notice we
B
12
use our phones a lot." This can help her understand
A
13
you feel.
Finally, why not suggest some family phone-free periods
D
14
? This could be during dinner or when you go on an outing together. It will surely make the
C
15
with your mother better.
