How are you doing this? I have been for a solution to this for the last few months but nothing really came up. TIA.
- tisdy 9y ago"Don't turn on the TV or <punishment>."
- randlet 9y agoYou make a rule. This isn't a technology problem.
- yitchelle 9y agoMy kids are the kind with the attitude that "rules are made to be broken", which I like. It's like the hacker's ethos almost.
- randlet 9y agoWhy bother having a rule if you're not going to enforce it? I agree that questioning authority is healthy, but people also are required to follow rules on occasion and it's your job to teach them how to do that. Using a technological solution to a discipline issue is a short term bandaid for a long time problem.
- NoGravitas 9y agoEven if our kids turned on the TV, there would be nothing to watch on it except the Chromecast homescreen. No cable, no antenna. Elder child's phone has no video apps on it except the built-in one they can play their own home videos on (maybe they could cast those to the TV?).
- Markoff 9y agoyeah, that's my definition of "TV" nowadays, it's just external display for content I push there, though I have smart TV with apps, so there is sort of way to display something, but not the traditional passive TV channels
