[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We avoid screens so we write a storybook over the course of the month. Kids love talking about what they want to happen in the next “chapter” all during the week. We do lots of drawing/painting and reading outside of this activity, but they get really excited about this weekly tradition.[/quote]

What a helpful and non judgemental comment PP! I hope this helps you to feel good about yourself all day :)[/quote]

NP, but while this is arguably a misplaced comment, it's not judgmental at all, unless you're insecure about your own family's screen time. Yes, yes, simply making it in a post about movies could be characterized as judgmental, in a stretch, but it could also simply be someone sharing a similar activity that works for them (maybe they think it's easier to find books that appeal to parents/kids and can be doled out over time, as the OP desires).

It's interesting to me that people who ask for NON screen activities are often inundated with "What are you so uptight about?! A little TV never hurt anyone. I watched 53 hours a day and simultaneously attended Harvard, Princeton and Yale. You're making it forbidden fruit!!!" And those comments are never called "judgmental."  [/quote]
