[quote=Anonymous]Yes, my DH asked me to ask around to see what other parents were doing. Maybe we could allow some weekday screens. The problem with weekday screens is that it turns into a squishy mess of negotiation if I allow a little bit. When it's based on the day of the week, my kids know that, hey, it's Tuesday so don't even ask. It could turn into, "I'm almost done", "Just 5 more minutes please" and all the other whining and pushback. During the week I don't have the patience for it, need to get the kids fed and in bed. But considering it. DD so desolate over it lately, she wants to play Starstable with her friends online. If she plays Starstable, she is definitely not reading. Starstable is actually kind of a charming online multiplayer horse game. [/quote]
