Absolutely. I am always heartened when I see my kids watching TV.

I watched so much tv growing up and love watching it with my kid.

Don't worry - his drink is like, water with lemon or a cucumber or something.

Why would you word it that way? How odd.

I said it that way because I'm odd. I say everything slightly oddly.

My 16 year old will occasionally watch a one hour show.

My 13 year old will watch something on her iPad if she has a free evening, usually while she does her nails.

There’s not much TV watching during the school year.

It depends on the sport season.

One of my kids likes to watch sports and cook. I don’t complain because I like to eat, and he gets his work done and is active in extracurriculars.

My other kid doesn’t have much free time because he works more slowly and spends a lot of time on music, when he does have time for screens it’s almost all video games, or FaceTiming his girlfriend.

Technically none, because we don't have a TV.
But I'm being facetious, because it's all screentime on their laptops or tablets.

Depending on how much homework he has, probably somewhere between 30 min and 2 hours— probably 1 hour most nights. Usually one episode of a show.

None, but she is on YouTube maybe an hour or so?

My ds zero, he hates tv, but watches some Youtube, reels...DD and I often end up watching a couple shows, so maybe 2 hours.

We watch an hour long show in the evenings. I think he watches 1-2 half hour shows before I get home

None. We don’t allow tv on schools days. On the weekend … well, that is another story. They have lots of activities, but get up earlier than me and watch in the morning and I don’t police it on Friday or Saturday night. Sunday after activities we treat like a week night so they go to bed earlier. We started this pattern in elementary. It might be hard to impose now if this hadn’t been standard practice.

Like hours? Mine has been logging 2-3. She NEVER has homework. Extracurriculars are later in the evening.
