[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP I am 60 and grew up in Minnesota. From the earliest ages I watched a couple hours of TV a day: Romper Room, Captain Kangaroo, cartoons. So did all my friends. Our parents didn't give it a second thought. It was fine. Today's parents are out of their minds, and raising a generation of kids who can't cope with life.[/quote] I am 33 and I agree with you! I was raised by the TV and I turned out fine, I swear. I don't even like TV now, I genuinely prefer reading. I've read that screens and screentime themselves aren't the problem (provided it's quality stuff), it's what you DON'T do if you rely on TV. So if you're still reading to your kid, playing with them, encouraging independent creative play, getting them outside, etc, don't even worry about it. Your kid is going to be ok!![/quote]
