Encourage your child to engage in shared interests, and to brush teeth without dawdling? How old are your children, and exactly who do you think is going to raise them into productive and useful members of society?

Three kids 5 and under. You get back what you put into them. If what you put into them is surfing your phone while they brush their teeth for 15 minutes, I feel bad for future them and future you.
Harsh I know, but sometimes that is what it takes to change a mindset. Other people have more constructive and specific ideas. I sincerely hope you think about them.
I have 0, 3 and 5 year olds. The three year old can spend at least five minutes between each spoonful of breakfast, just staring into space. She insists on using a small spoon so these things combine to create epic breakfasts too...
