[quote=Anonymous]Totally depends on the ages and the circumstances. My 2 year old watching Paw Patrol on mute at his sister's 1 hr violin recital (other than while she is actually performing), because she is desperate for DH & I both to see her big day and we couldn't come up w/ child care? He is being good. It is a developmentally unreasonable expectation for a 2 year old to sit still for 1 hour w/ no distraction at all; even 1 hour w/ muted PP is a big stretch (he actually spent half the time doing a sticker book as well). We praised him repeatedly. A 10 year old ignoring Grandma for an hour while he watches his phone? Fine if that's OK w/ the parents, but no affirmative credit from me. Lots of gray area in between.[/quote]
