View original post1 - when did you first allow your kids to watch a tv show? why that age, if you had a reason?


View original postNot until she was 2. Our pediatrician send that ant amount of regular TV had negative effects

View original post2 - what was the show? why that show?


View original postTypically preschool stuff like Dora, Word Girl and Mickey Mouse Club House. She plaid a role in picking but we decided what was offered and we avoided the truly annoying stuff like Tele-tubbies and weird show with the guy who like a giant sex toy.

View original post3 - do you have cable/satellite, or do you just use dvds or internet for tv?


View original postCable but at 7 my daughter watches mostly Netflix. She likes it because she watch stuff like H2O from Australia and she likes to power watch series. We like it because we can control what she watches and there is no marketing.
