Great article
Thanks, Mark! As a father of a 3 year-old who is quickly mastering the television, laptop, and PC this article is extremely relevant to me. I have certainly thought about some of the things that you have brought up. As an IT Consultant, I am guilty of engaging in far too much screen time myself. I admit it, I'm addicted! How do I keep my son who is watching me from becoming the same at his young age?
Some of the things that I have considered is limiting his screen time. We are trying to get it down to just an hour after he eats dinner. Since he typically watches TV while eating, and we struggle to get him to eat, it may help to use it as a reward, rather than just a device to keep him occupied.
Anyway, I am looking forward to any other suggestions, as well.
Thanks again!
