[quote=Anonymous]What is your DH idea? Is this a team he loves to follow? Why can't you say screen time doesn't count towards baseball? Does your DH "do" anything while watching baseball? Thinking to my youth, where my mother would have one game (baseball, basketball & football) on the TV and another on the radio while she was ironing, folding laundry, coupon bingo (line up the coupons to the giant/safeway ads) - she was busy during this game time and my brothers would be in the room with her, sometimes sprawled on the floor moving plastic sports people along with the action. My mom and her boys still go to games together and watch them. (my dad gardened) You are missing the point being focused on the screen time and not on the family time. If your DD doesn't like baseball, take her to the park or the nail salon with you while your DH & DS watch the game. Unless you also like baseball and then you just tell her its baseball or no screen time. [/quote]
