Subject: Who entertains the kids? And give me less TV.
This amount of TV very much IS the norm, but that doesn't mean it's particularly healthy or that OP shouldn't try to cut down. "It makes her happy and means I don't have to play with her" is... not a ringing endorsement. It's also not exclusive to TV time.

Yes, Agree!!!!! I am a single mom of s kindergarten DD. I am also an early childhood teacher. She does weekly ballet, we see tons of children’s theater, museums, library, we are working on a 700!piece puzzle together, games, I play barbies with her after teaching all day, just baked lemon cake with her over the weekend, art, ETC!
I see no problem giving her unlimited screen time when we are not busy. She loves it, and mommy needs a break!
Well you have an only child so she does not have anyone to play with but you... OP has 3 kids... they should be able to play together and entertain each other

Wait, why aren’t your kids entertaining *each other*? Those are great ages to play together.

Forgot to mention that we also like to scout out new playgrounds on the weekend and drive up to 45 minutes for a very special playground ...
