[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As a parent concerned about screens it feels like a constant uphill battle. DH doesn't seem to care that much and when he hands DC a screen at a restaurant or decides to use his time with DC to watch tv there is not much I can do. I have talked to DH about it before but it is like we are speaking a different language.

And that is just at home. DC only likes the library for playing computer games. At school when they do open houses invariably within 10 minutes of me being there they turn on a video for a brain break. Why do they need a video for a brain break? Turn on some music ffs[/quote]

That sounds very frustrating. My wife definitely spends most of her evenings doomscrolling social media, but at least we're on the same page about not giving devices to the kids and have been since they were born. I wish that she'd get off the phone herself, but I understand that she's exhausted from work, and the kids (preschool and kindergarten) are happy to be read to by me, so it works out all right.
