old wives' tale 

A belief, usually in the form of untested new pieces of information like having to behave well to get more screen time from parents, passed from mouth to mouth as piece of traditional wisdom

My parents always made me behave well to earn extra screen time, but now I realize it was just an old wives' tale about how to manage kids and technology.
