[quote=Anonymous]10:13 here. Don't get me wrong, DS gets screen time. When I have to make dinner or get some work done, I'm okay with putting on 101 Dalmations or letting him watch 3 episodes of Word World. Sometimes I NEED him to sit quietly by himself for a while. But I do try and reserve those times for when I really need the break (I'm single, so breaks are few and far between). He gets 1hr/day right now and I'm hoping to cut that down once we get settled into our new routine (we just moved and he's starting PS3 in a few weeks). And I'm anti-screen time for myself too. When I'm home and DS is awake, my computer is off (unless I have work that needs to be done ASAP). I'm hoping to get a smartphone around Xmas, but the same rules will apply then: when I'm with DS, the phone will be set down in another room. It drives me up the wall to be with my siblings and see them on their phones constantly, you can't hold a decent conversation because of the interruptions.[/quote]
