[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. Thanks for the comments. My son would play all day if I let him and I just think it is addictive for him. It is all he wants and anything else just gets in the way of it. Just wondering what other parents had for limits.[/quote] Why doesn't he have other things to do?[/quote] +1 We don't limit screen time on the weekends, but there are natural limits in place because of other things that are going on. He usually has a game each weekend, so there's a break for that. We have meals together, so there are breaks for those. He has chores (cleaning his room, helping out in the yard, etc.) and homework to do, so he has to take breaks to do that. Add in a visit to see family, having a friend over, or going on a hike as a family, and that will eat up an afternoon too. He probably spends about as much time in front of a screen on the weekends as your son, but we don't have battles about it.[/quote]
