[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As much as they want. We kept restrictions in place the first week and it was nonstop interruptions about it. Last week we [b]let them have free reign on the TV and were pleasantly surprised that they didn't just veg all day watching TV. [/b]They'd watch some, get bored, and go find another activity. We may keep the loose restrictions once school does start back in the fall (if it does). There's been zero fighting and chores are still getting done. [/quote] This, exactly. The novelty wears off fairly quickly. We’re allowing pretty much unlimited screen time right now, and they still prefer games and story time and playing in the backyard. If you need to use screens to have time to put the baby down or get chores done or anything else, you should feel no guilt.[/quote]
