[quote=Anonymous]If he wants to plan, can you try to give him some scheduling info ahead of time for him to plan around? “Tomorrow, after I pick you up, we’ll go to the grocery store and while we’re there you can pick out an (apple, ice cream treat, etc.), and then we’ll make another quick stop before we head home. You might even ask if there’s something he wants to add to the schedule. I realize there’ll always be the chance for something unexpected to arise, but if it’s the exception instead of the rule, he might be able to cope better. I understand and respect you wanting to limit screen time (although I didn’t, just controlled content) but 20 minutes is shorter than most TV shows. It may not matter with Bluey, which seems to have shorter episodes, but at some point you might want to consider 30 minutes at a time (or 1 episode’s worth if no commercials), even if you cut back on the frequency to compensate.
