[quote=Anonymous]With our first, we did no screen time until 2. Now at 5, she gets one show a night if there is time and every couple of weekends we do family movie night. Our second is only a baby, but I can already see that there's pretty much no way to avoid screens for him since #1's show will be happening while #2 is awake, as would family movie night since their bed times are pretty close together. I have 2 young cousins like you describe and they are always on some type of device. Even when it's Christmas and the entire family is gathered, they never stop with the Minecraft or whatever it is they are into at the time. I watched quite a bit of tv as a kid, but I was always expected to be present when we had company and as we only had one tv it certainly wasn't on when my parents were entertaining and if my parents wanted to watch the news or whatever, that was what was on and it generally lacked appeal to us kids so we'd find other things to do instead.[/quote]
