Ten year old and screens

So my ten year old is obsessed with screens. Music, gaming and YouTube. He wants to have a career in all that, it's all he cares about.

Hitting Kids back?

Say your kid hits you and at times often. What do you do to correct it? How can you teach them the consequences of hitting others if you don’t hit them back?

Do you think your 4 year old could figure out how to get somewhere that takes 20 minutes walking?

My son got his shoes and jacket on, took my hand and took me on a walk to a store 20 minutes away, right into the store, straight to where the candy is. I didn't guide him at all. He got kind of mixed up for 2 minutes but he directed us back the right way. He can't talk but he can really remember how to get places.
