[quote=Anonymous]OP here. Thanks for the feedback. Someone felt that the 1 1/2 hours a day of screen time was too much. Her screen time has been 10 1/2 hours a week since she was around 5. I'm following the recommendation of the American Academy of Pediatrics, which is no more than 1 or 2 hours per day. Note again: she is purposely not allowed an account on any social media such as FB or Instagram, which can be super addictive. To be honest, I think her screen time is quite low compared to other kids who do 2 hours of video games a day, plus an hour or two of tv a day. As for her habit of doing it at the same time, that's because she likes to watch certain shows at those times. As I said, I always watched the "4:30 Movie" in NY when I was younger...it didn't hurt my academics in the least. On Saturdays and Sundays she is also limited to 1 1/2 hours a day for total screen time. It works out fine for us.[/quote]
