Negotiating screen time with a 12-year-old
Your 12-year-old wants 3 hours a day on the iPad. You want 1. Brief an AI to draft a fair conversation framework.
Difficulty: Starter · Genre: Negotiate
The scenario
Kid: 12, articulate, will push back hard. You: tired of being the bad guy, but also serious about limits. Goal: a structure for a real talk where the kid feels heard but the limit lands.
The goal
An AI should produce a 5-step framework: what you'll listen to first, your reasoning, the specific offer (e.g. 90 min weekdays, 2 hrs weekend), the trade (more for finished homework), and the review date.
What a strong brief covers
Should mention: kid's age and style, your real limit, your willingness to trade, the format (steps, not script), and a tone that's collaborative not authoritarian.
