Go hang out with OP. You can be judgmental together.
I'm sure being your progeny he can find someone equally mindless to spend time with. Shouldn't be too difficult.
NP. You seem like a crappy person. I seriously can't wrap my head around someone like you looking down on other parents. If I knew a mom who wrote what you've written above, I'd be deeply embarrassed for her.
This whole thread is about crappy people looking down on others. Welcome to DCUM.

This was the day when school was open with 4" of snow.
Oh my goodness. I didn't realize it was a whole 3 hours in a whole 4 inches of snow. Didn't realize the 13yr olds couldn't survive. You saved them!!
What happen to the rest of the kids after they made fun of your coddled kid whose Mommy had to come save them. Did they die of hypothermia? lol
Actually, it was there father. And, with my effort, every child was brought on the bus (a total of 8 at that moment) was brought to school, though a little late.

Not all kids who have screen time act like "boring, uncreative zombies" - my son has unlimited screen time, but that doesn't mean that's all he does. If your child can't handle it, then limit it but, as we all know, not all children are the same and there are children who have a broad range of interests.
Unlimited screen time is a ridiculous at any age. Sorry.
That's an opinion and a judgment, not a fact. PLENTY of kids I know play video games and have "screens" but are not zombies. The smartest kid I know -who is not my own- plays the most video games of any kid, hands down. He's also a great swimmer and runner, and has a great sense of humor.
