Overall, it seems to be working really well. She’s super curious, and she loves to read and go outside. There are some downsides for you, as the parent, however. You can only watch TV after the kid goes to sleep, so no more watching live TV. You also have to be engaged with your child most of the time. Sometimes, it would be so nice just to sit her down for 30 minutes and go relax, but you have fewer options to do that without TV. She is actually pretty good at entertaining herself, but those stretches of self play aren’t predictable or controllable like putting a TV show on is.
