answer:We don’t limit screen time at all. Our kids are ages 15, 12 and turning 9 next week. (Going into grades 4, 7 and 11.) None of our kids are overweight, they all get good grades and they all will, on their own, get up – turn off whatever they’re using/watching and go outside to play on occasion and as weather permits. Our kids have their own unique passions and interests – and for the most part – have always used electronics to supplement their interests. I started listing out what they use their devices for..and decided not to because it just sounds like bragging..and I don’t mean to be that parent..but suffice it to say, I’m thrilled with how they spend their time online, watching TV or using their tablets or laptops. And, they have tons of Legos, books, craft supplies and kits – and make good use of them. By the way, our parenting style (with not heavily restricting digital devices / screen time) extends to foods and books and other things. Hubby and I have always had the mindset that micro-managed kids who live in an overly sheltered/restrictive environment will obsess over whatever they’re being restricted from using/eating/seeing. So, we have a big ol’ bucket of candy sitting on a kitchen counter. The kids will walk right past it and pick up an apple. I love when our middle daughter comes home from school and decides that she wants Oatmeal as her afternoon snack. That thrills me. And, if they want a piece of chocolate after dinner, they’ll dig into the basket and find it. They know that when they’re hungry they should eat some real food..but because the candy is never restricted (always sitting out & available) they never seem to need to gorge on it. This doesn’t mean we haven’t had boundaries, limits and consequences—we’re not totally free-range parenting here! We still insist on bedtimes to ensure they get sufficient sleep, and we’re definitely hands-on/involved with our kids at all times.
