[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How many days out of the year is this really? We're in the middle but I usually let the higher volume go. If there is another group activity where it is clear, then we should all participate. e.g., we're all starting monopoly at 8 p.m. (or whatever, I hate monopoly). But no, I don't get upset that kids watch tv together rather than willingly make a giant lego set or something. But again, it's so few days, it doesn't matter.[/quote] But it doesn't sound like they are watching TV together; it sounds like kids are on their own, separate devices. I get the complaint -- it's not about the screens per se, it's that the kids are happily playing a game or engaged in some other fun activity together, and then the screens come out and it all stops, and these kids don't get to spend a lot of time together in the first place.
