[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I see a lot of educated parents taking the easy way out by placating their kids with screens 24/7. I’m not against a little judicious screen time, but that should not be the default activity. I’m shocked that they haven’t read about the long-term effects[/quote] I’m sure they have, but education doesn’t make parents any less overwhelmed, exhausted, and crunched for time. In fact, I’d likely argue that it makes them more so. Seriously, I wish parents would just stop judging other parents. You have NO IDEA about the choices anyone else has to make. So reframe it. From the perspective of your life, they’re simply the choices you wouldn’t make. Understand that YOUR choices are also the ones someone else wouldn’t make. I make choices I don’t like every day, but they are choices that still keep my family healthy, (mostly) happy, and intact. I’m supposing none of you perfects have ever had to do that? [/quote]
