[quote=Anonymous] I think it is also important to remember that the kids are still growing. Brains are immature and could be more/differently affected by screen time (maybe). One thing which has been demonstrated in numerous studies is that screen time depresses melatonin production which can delay sleep onset and affect quality of sleep. Lack of good quality sleep has been associated with higher rates of depression and obesity. Again, not sure what all of this means. If anybody has information about the risks and benefits of computers/screen time, please share. I think any information can be helpful to parents who are trying to make a decision about what works for their kids and family.[/quote]
