[quote=Anonymous]My kids are the same age as yours and they've never had tv access except on special occasions (presidential debates, Olympics, etc.). As they're getting older, I let them make the case for exceptions: - watching one episode of one show, to know what other kids are talking about, and this applies to popular Youtubers (Dancing with the Stars, Master Chef Jr, Miranda Sings, Jenna Marbles, etc.) - watching something educational - when they're sick But if you're breaking your kids of a tv habit, they need to go cold turkey. If the kids don't have homework, they can play. Mine rarely ask to watch tv (once every month and a half?) because there are so many other fun things to do. Maybe it'd help if your kids brainstorm with you to come up with a list of fun things that don't involve screens. Baking, bike riding, playground, board games, card games, art projects, science experiments, etc.[/quote]
