[QUOTE="DazedandConfused, post: 23517, member: 831"] We have three TVs (one big screen) and when our masterbedroom addition is done, we are getting a big flat panel TV with DVD entertainment system for husband because he loves to watch NASCAR and drag racing. Also, we have two DVD players, gamecube, and gameboy. TV watching is not a big issue, or a problem in our house. Son would much rather play outside with other kids than watch TV. Sometimes, I will even TELL him to watch a little TV, or play video games, when he claims there's no one to play with and he won't stop whining. I like to watch TV and I like my shows. However, I do like to do other things while I watch. Like posting here (on the laptop)while I watch a show. I also like to crochet while I watch TV, or a movie. Then I don't feel like I'm "wasting" my time. With Daughter, it's computer time that is argued about most of the time. She could spend all day on the computer chatting and posting on Myspace. So, I have to make sure the computer is logged off or she's right on it as soon as she gets up. There was a family in the neighborhood that for religious reasons did not have a TV. When their kids would come over to play with Daughter they would come in and be GLUED to either Nick or Disney. Poor daughter would be begging them to go play outside and she would have to turn off the TV to get them to go out with her to play. [/QUOTE]
