[quote=Anonymous]We have a no-TV-at-breakfast rule on weekdays. They were taking too long to eat and making it difficult for me when it was time to go to school. On weekends, and after homework is done on weekdays we will let them watch a lot of TV (like 2 hours straight.) Then it is bedtime or "TV off time to go play time." If they rage at me, they lose their privilege for the following day. However it took a couple of losses for them to realize we were serious. They can't believe we would be so mean ha ha! Your DH needs to be 100% on board. Otherwise you may come home to a bunch of TV zombies whenever you are not in charge at home. Because it is easier than parenting, as you have already discovered.
