[quote=Anonymous]My kids used to wake up super early and got tv in the morning and then some tv after school. I was in your situation. I stopped cold turkey in the morning and each child now gets 1 tv show of choice per day. I have 2 kids so each kid gets to watch the other child's pick so they get about 45-50 min per day. They don't get ipads or games either. This is a treat on bad weather weekends or if we go on a trip. Now kids wake up and play super well in the morning. After school they play outside. They watch their shows while I prep dinner. Older child is now in 1st grade and actually has some homework. After Hw, kids can play again but don't ask for tv because they know I won't give them extra. We do reading before bed.[/quote]
