How do I build a Faraday cage around the bathroom?

@criley Can't help with wi-fi blocking, but a big bag of sugar-free gummy bears could help on the 'shit himself to death' front. A couple bouts of multi-hour cramping and voiding everything he's ever even thought about eating might cause him to avoid camping in the bathroom. Good luck !

@foster30 This is also brilliant! Haribo to the rescue

@criley When you leave the bedroom in the morning, take his phone with you. Buy an old fashioned alarm clock to wake him up. If desperate, unplug the router when you wake up.

@mkharris Maybe I can train the dog to abscond with it. Plausible deniability as she steals stuff generally (doesn’t eat or destroy stuff, just hoards), and she’s adorable so he can’t be mad.

@criley Sounds like if you got a divorce than at least you’d only be a single parent to 1 kid, not 2.

@criley This is one of my favorite posts I've read in a long time.

@criley It’s pricey but eero mesh WiFi.

I have it setup so all devices are attached to profiles. It’s then a 1 button press to turn off WiFi access.

When our kids are older, you can also setup parental controls to block certain sites, enforce bedtimes, etc.

It’s relatively easy to setup.

@criley I’d take the bathroom door off the hinges and call it a day. Can’t hide and scroll without the privacy of a door.

@criley Can I just say that I really want to be friends with you? The idea of a bathroom faraday cage is BRILLIANT! Let's make this happen...

@criley Get a loud alarm that you can trigger.
