[quote=Anonymous]We do McDs rarely, but I'm kind of wondering how some families have TIME for TV when they WOTH..??? We get my son back from preschool aftercare (pick him up at 4:30) and then get home around 5:00 and he helps us walk the dog, plays with one of us while the other one gets dinner ready or hangs out in the kitchen, then it's dinner, then a bit more playing while clean up happens, bath time, story time (2 books usually) and BED at 8:00. It's all pretty back-to-back. I guess it's a whole different ball game with older kids who are going to bed much later, but DS is almost 4 and I don't really know where we'd fit TV in. Weekends are just as crazy. When he wakes up, he's HUNGRY, so it's morning and breakfast with music, morning routine (teeth, hair, etc), getting dressed and we are pretty much out the door. On Saturdays, we go grocery shopping, then lunch and nap, then a playdate with snack, home, dinner, bedtime routine. Sunday is church, lunch/nap, family activity, dinner, bed. WHERE DOES THE TV COME IN? Seriously, no judgment, I just have no clue. My husband and I haven't watched a tv episode in 4 years (except when I was nursing on mat leave). We keep being like "oh, that looks interesting...." and then we fall asleep.[/quote]
