[quote=Anonymous]I had these same questions right about at this age, and I think it's because that's right around when the baby started to "notice" screens. Before that, I could have my phone while nursing, have TV on in the background, and he didn't "see" it, but then he started noticing it and being fascinated - so we had to stop. So, since then, yes, no TV on when the kid is in the room, no playing on my phone where he can see, and we keep him away from the computers whenever we can (sometimes he crawls in to say hi while we're working, we don't stress about 2 minutes like that). He'll still, of course, get a glance at a screen, like if we turn on YouTube for music or something, or if I'm answering a text. But it's very short. It honestly was really easy because at this point, if he can see a screen he stops whatever he is doing and completely stares at it. So there's no corner cutting. [/quote]
