Gaming Console Strict Parent

[Anonymous]

DD wants a Wii so we’ll buy a used one and I’ll take the controllers when they can’t be used. Not so worried about DD but could see Ds going up at 3 am to play.

We have a 2 hour screen time limit (for any kind of screen) AND expectations about what the kids need to do (chores, instrument practice, homework, physical activity). If they do what they need to, they can use the 2 hours how they see fit in the places we say are OK (not in the car, not at mealtimes or family time). Works really well. There are clear expectations and they get their time.

Xbox with kinect sensor and only kinect games.

Dd 12 and DS 9 play it often but its exercise. And when they both have friends over they play it all together. (Usually party mode in 'sports').

I would totally recommend it. It's so active I don't even limit it as screen time.
