[quote=Anonymous]Background TV has been shown in studies to affect the time and “depth” with which children play with their toys (and specifically noted that parents in the room thought it had no effect/didn’t register it, but were mistaken). So, yes, it has an effect of some kind. I don’t think most parents “count” it, though. IMO what you count as screen time or as problematic screen time is up to you and your goals, if your goals include limiting it— but should be based on WHY you might want to limit it (or not) and not on some blanket idea of “screen time is bad” or whatever. That is unhelpful at best. [/quote]
