Turning the Tablet Off Without a War

Four sentences, in order.

Turning the Tablet Off Without a War

  1. "Two more minutes, then it's my turn to hold it." (warning + who gets it)
  2. "Finish the level or pause it — you pick." (control)
  3. "Next is snack." (name what comes next, not what ends)
  4. "I know. It's hard to stop." (name the feeling, keep the limit)

Then stop talking. The upset after is normal and it ends.
