I think these days getting kids involved in non-tech based activity groups could help a child have a more balanced relationship with technology.

There are also options like homeschooling, but that is obviously a massive commitment and different life journey for a family to take.

Then ofc there are rules and enforcement mechanisms. Rules can really be whatever you like. Enforcement can happen at your router, DNS or maybe firewall. If you like to configure those sorts of things you could block access to certain services or websites based on time of day, or target specific devices in you network. When they are not home you won't be able to do this so easily. There is also risks of coming off too adversarial and damaging your relationship with your child.
