[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Follow up question here. (Not OP): When your child *is* on the computer, do you make them sit in an area where the screen can be seen?[/quote] We don't and we also don't have any real limits on screen time. Both kids are HS now and are very active in sports and other school activities plus a job and girlfriend for the oldest. We made grades/homework a priority and as long as everything is done, they're free to spend time as they see fit. FWIW- both have GPAs over 3.9 and the oldest scored a 29 on the ACT, has tested out of several AP classes, and will be choosing between a couple Big Ten schools for next year. So I don't see the harm in him binging on COD or Destiny. In the big scheme of things, he's doing alright. I just don't understand the hand-wringing over screen time. The world is evolving. We chose to evolve with it. [/quote]
