Screen time

I won’t say the same but the tv is just kinda on in the background playing various super simple songs throughout the day. He goes and plays with his toys in his room or in the living room or we go outside. So he’s not actually in front of it all day. And for us it’s definitely helped him learn more words, counting, shapes and his abcs. But if you are against it I’m not sure how your relationship is but I would just reiterate that you would like him not to have more than x minutes of screen time. Sometimes I think the older generations don’t know what to do so they resort back to what they did with us which atleast for me was in front of the tv until I was old enough to go outside by myself. Maybe show her other things she can do with him to keep him entertained. It’s a boundary like any other that you just have to make very clear and then there has to be a repercussion like with kids. So if it is feasible maybe that is moving. That would be my end game if nothing works

I agree 100% with Khyia. It’s a boundary that you have set and she needs to respect that. We let our son watch way too much tv. Though it has helped him learn a lot very fast, I wish we limited his screen time in the beginning so he’s not so attached to it. I wish I was the one teaching him those things instead of the tv.

@Laura T. @Khyia I would have been moved if I could 😩😩 she’s great it’s just the screen time she ignores and I repeat myself way too much at this point I’m over it idk

I would be really frustrated too. I’ve been feeling really guilty lately for the amount of screen time I’ve allowed in the past and although he has learned a lot from Ms Rachel and others, he’s pretty hooked and I don’t like it. We’ve been limiting it a lot the past few weeks and in just that short time, his behavior has improved a lot. I saw your post earlier but didn’t have any advice other than maybe sharing facts about the negative aspects and your desire to give your child a better outcome. I just scrolled past this video and thought maybe you could share it with your mom. https://www.instagram.com/reel/DCP05pZoK1w/?igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==

We use the vtech learning laptops instead of screen time, my daughter knew all of her abc's and 1-20 by the time she was 2 1/2 because of it and my son has started talking significantly more in the past 1 1/2 - 2 months since we got one for him! We love them.

My girl is obsessed with Mickey Mouse Clubhouse and Little Bear but she gets bored after a couple episodes
