[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We're not an anti-TV family. We limit screen time haphazardly at best -- when we sense they're overdoing it, we say turn off the TV and read a book or go outside and play or do a craft or help clean the kitchen. Or whatever. That said, I've instituted a new rule in our house: If you stay home sick from school, there is absolutely no TV on the first day (only I don't tell them the first day part).[/quote] This has always been our house. If you're too sick for school, you aren't home watching TV and playing games. But really, my kids don't want to. If they're home sick it's because they have fevers and they're sleeping. TV would just annoy them and keep them up. They want the lights out and it quiet when they're feeling crummy. [/quote]
