[quote=Anonymous]We have a 4 yr old and it can vary fit precisely the reason you mention— Covid and quarantines have put us in childcare binds numerous times and that causes screen time to creep up. But we counteract by doing long periods of no screens at all. We really try to save it for “special” occasions, meaning when she’s sick, when one of us us out of town and the person solo parenting needs a break, when we are going through an extended period without childcare. So there have been random days where she has watched 2+ hours of TV (which I know makes people freak out— she’s 4! That’s too much!) but she’s never gotten used to daily TV. So we can go 2 or more weeks with no screen time at all. We also really limit what she’s allowed to watch, plus she’s picky, and that helps. She has four shows on the okay list, plus can watch any Winnie the Pooh movie.[/quote]
