[quote=Anonymous]I have girls and neither has expressed desire to play video games although I’m sure they’d get sucked in if we introduced it. They don’t use YouTube. They do some kid shows but not many, although they wish they had more. One thing that keeps the older one (8) from asking to play video games is that she has said that it feels like that’s almost entirely what the boys in her class talk about ALL the time, and she thinks that’s weird (no idea if her assessment is accurate). She also has wonderful teenage cousins who talk to her about the consequences of too much screen time based on what they see at their school. She is definitely not one of the popular girls though and has said that she sometimes doesn’t know about things the kids are talking about. Doesn’t seem to bug her much b/c I’ve told her to let me know and we can look into them together, but she has little interest in doing so. [/quote]
