[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kids (1st adn 4th grade) get 2 hrs/day on their iPads on the weekends only and maybe an hour on Friday afternoons. So 4-5 hrs/week. Mostly minecraft. This does not include watching TV or movie nights. I really do believe screen time is like a drug making them want more and turning them into monsters when their time is up. I love weekends when they have lost their ipads. [/quote] You're the parent. If weekends are better without ipads, don't allow them. It's tough at first to quit once that genie is out of the bottle (I know from experience) but the resulting household harmony is so worth it. After a few weeks, the screen monster behavior was almost gone, and a year later, we don't miss them.[/quote]
