[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Who even has a tv anymore? We don’t. I don’t know if anyone under 65 that does. Pad and computers require a parent to sign in, plus screen time can be set for 15 30 45 min. So it’s easy to restrict. [/quote] Have you read about pediatric eye issues with screens? Ipads and computers are much worse than TVs (which are further away and the screen is different/not backlit). Kids now on screens all day at school are having a wide range of eye issues that hadn't ever been seen in this severity in kids. My sibling is a pediatric ophthalmologist and can't believe no one is talking about the eye issues she's seeing. Screens don't affect adult eyes the same way. We're exactly the opposite. We allow morning cartoons, but restrict ipad or computer use.[/quote]
