[quote=Anonymous]Boys age 8 and 11. They get <30 minutes in the morning watching cartoons and ~30-45 minutes of TV in the evening watching the news or Discovery type channel show with me. They also get about 1 hr to play video games each day after homework is done. On weekends, it's about the same but we watch a movie on Friday and maybe Saturday night and about 1 hr extra of sports. Plus another hr of video games. There has been no impact on school...both in GT and still in the top 25% of their class. Both play on sports teams, chess club, music lessons, reading each day, family dinners, etc. Relax and let them enjoy what they like to do within reason. [/quote]
