[quote=Anonymous]Yes.  Tons.  Some educational, some not.  Games on this phone, Nintendo Switch, X Box, Youtube (whatever random crap Ryan's Toys unboxing videos, video of people playing Mario Cart, Combo Panda - whoever the F that is).

Instead of saying "you can watch for an hour", I am now setting a timer for mandatory playing-by-yourself-with toys time.

I have two college kids at home and I thought that would be helpful, but they do things like play x box with him.

Other than COVID, his screentime is the most anxiety inducing issue of my day.  I have a hard and busy job and DH is essential and still WOH.

He already has a language related developmental delay, so I agonize that I am making it worse.

But I will say this...he can spell and is starting to read - and that is bc of an app.  He is practicing words in our second language on an app.  He is going through a huge language leap as well and his language has dramatically improved during quarantine!  What can I say.
