[quote=Anonymous]if as a parent you allow your child to watch tv whenever they want, that is what the child expects. it makes your job as a nanny 100x harder. i used to have a parent allow their child to watch tv constantly, and then ask me to turn it off the second they walked out the door. this would cause an hour of pouting and tantruming, and the child would cry when i got there. i much prefer parents who allow a limited amount of screen time-say, 30 minutes a day. that way the child knows the parameters. i also think that there should be leeway for extreme situations-for example, when the weather is below freezing for a week at a time and you can't go about your normal activities, or if it is pouring rain and you are trapped in the house for 12 hours, or if the child is sick.
