- em-bee 7y agothe oldest is 7 going on 8. my plan is to not give them independent screen time until they have learned how to use it properly and are old enough to deal with unexpected things they might come across, also not sharing personal data, etc. it also works as an excuse to spend more time with the children. my wife and her family have a different attitude about this, so the kids do get some independent screen time to watch tv that is beyond my control. but they are not getting access to computers in our home without supervision. the advantage is that i don't need to bother with parental controls that the kids might figure out how to circumvent (intentionally or not) and i get to teach them responsible behavior. ask me in a few years how well that's working :-)
