[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]With DD's theory, if each kid gets to pick a 30 minute show but DS happens to like DD's show, then DS somehow got an extra 30 minutes, so now DD gets an additional 30 minutes so it's 'fair'. If she again picks a show that her brother likes, she again is entitled to an addditional 30 minutes, etc. Your DD should be a lawyer; this is a great way to read the rules to accomplish her goal![/quote] That's not DD's point at all. The TV is ON for the sports shows, IN ADDITION to the screen time she and her brother already get. So her brother gets his screen time PLUS screen time for sports. I agree he is getting way more screen time. OP, if I were you and the point of your rule was to control screen time, then why aren't you concerned with all the extra tv-watching your DS is doing when your DH watches it? I would count that as screen time. Seems crazy not to.[/quote]
