This is the ONE THING I wish I had done with my kids. They are both pretty good but the phones did absolutely nothing good for them.

For what goal? Just for them to get instantly addicted once the ban is lifted? For them to lack any communications with their friends and to be excluded from their social circles discussing the newest tiktoks or whatever?
I think you chose well
To the end of reducing exposure during developmental periods, with the aim of having a long term benefit.
Yeah that's fair.
I still don't believe that it's worth it, with the exclusion from their social circle causing a bigger health issue than social media, but I get it.

Somehow kids were able to make friendships before everyone was online all the time. Perhaps they don't need to be spending time discussing the newest tiktoks. Maybe their friends should be hanging out and doing things.
