[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So weird how others think they can dictate how others choose to live their lives. So because you don't have a TV at home (or don't like the noise for whatever reason) everyone should shut theirs off when you come over? Really? [/quote] Living their lives is one thing, but OP's post was about family visiting. [b]For many people, TV interferes with connecting with loved ones[/b]--and having a TV on all the time can seem like an attempt to avoid making those connections. While people accustomed to having TV on in the background may feel that they multitask very well, that claim probably isn't a valid one, given actual scientific research on the effect of TV on people. Those without TV on all the time may be able to see this better.[/quote] Huh? This makes zero sense and reeks of someone who doesn't have a TV at home (and thinks that those who do are stunted in some way). Many people connect over TV shows, movies, etc. [/quote]
