>> My kids watch about 20 minutes of carefully selected video content a day. It helps wind them down before dinner and gives my wife and I a moment to breathe, so I'm not in the "pure poison" camp
"20 minutes of curated content" sounds an awful lot like "20 minutes of supervised play time in the playground with kids we've vetted", minus the actual exercise. Good luck with this policy by the time they hit 10+
- grantc 4y agoTo me, it sounds a lot more like "not using screens as a default babysitter." Support. Who cares if it's sustainable at 10+? If you get ten years of low threshold screen time for your kids, you've done well. You've probably done well to establish an activity prioritization that helps you for the tween years and beyond. The playground bit doesn't sound great and I don't know anyone who does this (I know many parents who attempt to minimize screen time).
