[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is what happens when you don’t teach children from a young age to amuse themselves. We use screens too much to keep our kids quiet and still in stead of teaching them these skills. Not judging just stating a fact.[/quote]

Shut up, sanctimommy.

We’re in a pandemic. Can’t you find some kindness even now?[/quote]

Eh, PP is right. It’s a basic skill a lot of kids haven’t been taught. It was an unkind statement.[/quote]

Yes it was. This is an unprecedented situation. It’s not the time to wax poetic about kids not knowing how to entertain themselves. My 3 year old isn’t going to entertain herself for weeks on end.[/quote]

Right. And that’s what PP is saying that it’s a skill that’s not really taught anymore. This situation is making that evident. Personally I am not worrying about screen limits and we will use them as needed, but so far that has been pretty minimal. We are all doing what we can to get through. [/quote]

Everyone is doing their best and no one needs lecturing about “skills.”[/quote]
