We used to eat dinner in silence—everyone on their phones. One day, my mom said, “New rule: no phones at the table.” At first, we complained. But slowly, we started talking, laughing, and sharing stories again. Now, dinner is the best part of the day. No one misses their phone

The rule would be that the first year students at the bottom of high school are given one hour of phone use.

This is a new rule for Vigotsky teachers. Students are allowed to have only a homework per week. This homework must not be long. I remember that a friend of mine was so stressful for doing homework. This is why we are going to have this rule next school year 2025-2026.

In my house, I’d create a rule that no one can take food anyone of us in my family labeled in the fridge. I’m tired of my food disappearing whenever I leave it out. If I’ve marked it, it means I want it later—not for someone else to eat without asking.

Jake stared at the blank page. The math homework felt impossible. He sighed, grabbed a pencil, and started. One problem led to another. Slowly, it made sense. An hour later, he smiled at the finished page. It wasn’t perfect, but it was done. Effort had turned confusion into clarity.

Every Friday, in my house, there is a rule of going to bed at 10 pm at the latest, since on Saturdays we don't know how to be at home, we know how to be at my grandmother's or a relative's, and to avoid being sleepy there, we go to sleep at 10 pm.

At dinner, I was looking at my phone. I didn’t hear the laughter or the sound of forks. My grandma gently tapped my hand and smiled. You’ll miss the best parts, she said quietly.

I looked up. My sister was telling a funny story from when we were kids. Everyone was laughing. I put my phone down and smiled. I didn’t want to miss those happy moments.

My parents always said bedtime was ten o’clock. But that night, I was watching a movie with my sister. We didn’t hear the time. Suddenly, Dad appeared, turned off the TV, and pointed upstairs. We laughed, but he wasn’t smiling. New rule the next morning. I never forgot and now always check the time.

Anna is a student. She always does her homework after school. She can use her computer to look for information. She can’t use her phone to talk to her friends. She can’t watch TV when she is doing homework. She can’t play video games before she finishes. When she finishes her homework, she can go play with her friends.

Dinner was silent until Dad’s phone buzzed. He glanced, chuckled, and texted back. “Rule’s broken,” I said, standing. “Sit down,” he snapped. I pointed to the sign: Talk or walk. He sighed, put the phone down. We talked. We laughed. And for once, dinner felt like dinner again.

In my house, we don’t wear shoes inside.
We leave them at the door to keep the floors clean.

In my house, we say “please” and “thank you.”
Good words make happy hearts.

In my house, we clean up our mess.
Toys go back in their box, and books on the shelf.

In my house, we don’t shout.
We use calm voices, even when we’re mad.

Last Saturday, my cousins came over for dinner. We were all playing video games when my uncle told us to turn everything off and eat. I didn’t want to stop, so I stayed. When I finally went to the table, the food was cold and everyone had finished. I felt bad. Now, I always listen the first time someone calls me to the table.

Dinner was quiet until Jake’s phone buzzed. He smiled, sneaking it under the table. Mom caught him instantly. “What’s the rule?” she asked. Jake groaned and handed it over. Conversation returned. That night, he realized talking to family wasn’t so bad. The next evening, he left his phone upstairs.
