Have you told your child, “Don’t use AI”? But how many times have you used it today?

AI isn’t the problem. The problem is not knowing when to use it, or where to draw the line.

The AI House Rules Kit gives you 30 real homework situations, ready-to-use parent scripts, and a family agreement everyone signs.

Clear rules that teach your child to think first and use AI well.

  • 30 homework decisions. Know when AI helps and when to draw a line.
  • 15 conversation scripts. Find words for the difficult moments.
  • One family agreement. Set rules that parents sign too.

A STANDARD IN ACTION

Here's what a standard actually looks like.

Not a philosophy. A call, a reason, and a sentence you can say out loud.

THE CALL

Yes.

She used AI to explain a math concept she didn't get, then solved the problems herself.

The explaining isn't the learning. The solving is.

WHAT TO SAY

"If you can explain it back to me without the screen, you learned it."

THE CALL

No.

He had AI write the first draft of an essay, then changed some words so it sounded like him.

Rewording someone else's thinking isn't thinking. And he already knows that — which is why he reworded it.

WHAT TO SAY

"I'm not upset that you used it. I want to know what you thought before you asked it."

THE CALL

She used AI to fix the grammar and spelling in her finished essay.

Spell-check has existed for decades. But when the assignment teaches mechanics, making the corrections is part of the learning.

WHAT TO SAY

"What is this assignment testing? If grammar, spelling, or mechanics are part of the grade, you make the corrections yourself."

You'll disagree with some of these. Change them — that's the entire point.

This isn't 30 rules handed to you. It's 30 decisions already thought through, so at 9pm you're editing instead of inventing.

27 more where those came from.

DECIDE

30 homework situations, already thought through. Plus 20 family scenarios: group chats, chatbot "friends," image generators, and more.

TALK

15 scripts for hard conversations, including when your child says you'd freak out or points out you use AI at work. Plus 5 school email templates.

RESPOND

For when it already happened: a detector flag or a chatbot "friend" you find at 11pm. 9 Incident Response Cards, with expanded large-print guidance for the most urgent situations.

AGREE

One agreement, everyone signs. Parents commit too — the part kids don't expect. Plus 4 weekly missions and 6 printable worksheets.

Recent parent reviews.

We put our family rules on the fridge and my son immediately added a rule about MY phone use. Fair enough I guess 😂 We’ve kept it going for a few weeks and it’s led to some surprisingly honest conversations I didn’t see coming.

JennaParent of a 10-year-old son

I thought filling in the rules would be difficult, but the categories were laid out really well, so it was easier than I expected.

Sarah K.Parent of a 10-year-old daughter

We tried making family rules and they lasted maybe four days 😂 Then we went back and used some of the questions from the kit. The conversation felt way less like an argument. Not a magic fix, but definitely a better place to start than where we were.

mike_dParent of an 11-year-old son

My son was spending so much time on Roblox I just assumed he was addicted to games. Then I realized he had started using AI to build his own game. I don’t know much about AI so it was hard to tell him yes or no. The kit helped us talk about it and set some basic rules so I can support what he’s learning instead of shutting it down.

I’m not a tech person so I expected this whole thing to go completely over my head. A few parts did, but the charts and examples were practical enough that I finally had somewhere to begin besides just saying “no.”

RayParent of a 12-year-old son

I found out my daughter had been chatting with an AI companion for months and honestly my first reaction was pure panic. This kit slowed me down enough to actually listen instead of exploding. We’re still figuring it out, but at least we’re talking now instead of fighting.

LisaM42Parent of a 12-year-old daughter

My son’s school flagged an essay he wrote himself as AI-generated. I was ready to march in there furious, but the kit reminded me to pause and gather his drafts first. We resolved it calmly and more importantly he knew I believed him. That mattered a lot.

T. NakamuraParent of a 13-year-old son

My child isn’t really using AI yet and that’s exactly why I bought this. I wanted to understand it before the questions and problems started showing up. The advice is simple and easy to adapt for younger kids, which I appreciated.

AimeeParent of an 8-year-old

My 15-year-old rolled his eyes hard when I first brought this up, so it wasn’t magically easy. But the kit helped me stop giving vague warnings and start talking about specific situations. We disagreed on a few rules and changed them together. He didn’t love the exercise, but he respects the rules more because he helped write them.

MarcusParent of a 15-year-old son

We started with AI rules, but ended up using the agreement for phones and gaming too. Signing it together made it feel less like rules for the kids and more like something we all agreed to as a family.

Is this for your family?

What this Kit does depends on when you start. For younger children, that often means prevention. By the mid-teens, it may mean changing habits already in place.

Probably not if:

  • You need software that monitors or blocks. This Kit supports decisions and conversations; it does not watch or restrict devices.
  • You want something to read without sitting down together. The useful part is making and changing the calls as a family.
  • You need clinical, legal, school-specific, or individualized guidance.

Probably yes if:

  • Your child is starting to use AI—or soon will—and you want a plan you can use tonight.
  • You want a middle ground between banning AI and handing it over without guidance.
  • You use AI too, and want to build judgment alongside parental controls.

This is a practical family tool, not a substitute for clinical or individualized guidance from a qualified professional, legal advice, or your child’s school rules.

My kid asked me something I couldn't answer.

So I asked AI. Read the answer. Passed it along.

He asked a follow-up. I asked AI again. Passed that along too.

Somewhere in the third round, I stopped.

I wasn't teaching him anything. I was a relay.

I build AI for a living. And I'd just modeled the exact habit I don't want him to have — twice, in five minutes, without noticing.

That's the honest reason this exists. Not because AI is dangerous — I use it all day. Because I had no standard. Not for him, and apparently not for me.

Developer. Dad. Still getting it wrong.

I’m a developer who uses AI every day, and a dad still learning where our family draws the line.

A straightforward promise.

Read the Kit, write in it, and try the conversation that fits. If it isn’t right for your family, email us within 30 days for a full refund. A used PDF is still refundable, and you don’t have to explain why. I’d rather return your payment than have you keep a guide you resent buying.

Your purchase also includes every revised edition released during the six months after checkout, sent to the email you use to buy. AI changes quickly; a one-time purchase should not leave your family with a frozen version while the tools and school rules keep moving.

LAST QUESTIONS

Still deciding? These are the ones that come up.

The value isn’t the file format; it’s the decisions, scripts, response cards, and family agreement inside it. You can start with the situation in front of you instead of reading every page. If it isn’t right for your family, email us within 30 days for a full refund.

WHAT HAPPENS NEXT

The next question is coming this week.

You'll answer it either way.

The only thing you're choosing is whether you answer it from a plan, or from the top of your head at 9pm with a kid standing there waiting.

I know which one I did. Three times in a row, before I noticed.

You don't have to get it right. You just have to stop improvising.
