[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The weakest link in this is the parents. So it's up to you whether or not it's sustainable. [/quote] Totally disagree. Weakest link is schools. My one kid is getting up to 5 hours a day of screen time. I know this because I get reports via email regarding his school laptop. We don't allow it at home and the kids get minimal screen time at home. We allow a bit more TV time in the winter because it's dark by 5pm and parents had a lot of work to do for the holidays (cooking, writing cards, cleaning, decorating). But otherwise my kids don't have tablet access and won't have phones until high school. On road trips over 4 hours or plane rides they get ipads, but they're not theirs, they're just borrowing. I'm so sick of people blaming parents when all I see is kids getting unlimited everything in schools. My kids are off playing minecraft instead of math while in school. That's on the teacher, not me.
