[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My child is well-behaved when there is no tv during the week, but she focuses on the tv if it is even an option, everything else (homework, reading, communicating, getting to bed, etc.) takes a backseat to potential tv watching.  This is the exact opposite of what I want her priorities to be, so she gets no tv during the week.  In limiting hers, I have ended up limiting mine somewhat as well (nobody is allowed to have tv while she is awake), and it has been a real benefit to me as well.[/quote]

Ditto. We have a no screen time on weekdays rule (with exceptions for research. Te computer if required for homework and minor s. tuff like looking up an address on the Internet). My kids just seem more cheerful and are better behaved when they have less screen-time. For them, at least, the screen is too addictive.... My kids + screen time= whining, squabbling, and sulking. My kids without screen time are delightful, funny, happy and cooperative. No contest....[/quote]
