I love technology, but I don’t get how anyone can think it’s wise to let their children stare at a screen all day. My nieces and nephews spend all of their time staring at iPads, but my children have much more limited screen time rules. It’s a small sample population, but my kids are generally pretty calm and well behaved. I love my nieces and nephews, but they are heathens.

- tnel77 4y agoI feel that it’s less about the screen and more about what you’re doing with it. When my children stare at screens, it usually to play an educational game. When I stare at screens, most of it is work or adulting. About 2-3 hours/week is gaming and 4-6 hours/week is watching some silly show with my wife. Now, kids in school are obviously doing educational stuff on their tablets so I see the fallacy in this line of thought. Idk. I feel like staring at a book is better, but what do I know? Maybe the increased engagement from a tablet is worth the downsides?
