[QUOTE="Jabberwockey, post: 642810, member: 18238"] I agree with you on that, but the screen time isnt just games and social media. Think about how many of us grew up with only a few channels on tv to choose from. We were living high on the hog with a whopping six, count them...SIX, tv channels! ABC, NBC, CBS, PBS, an independent channel, and a UHF channel. Most were lucky to have just the major three. Now there are channels to cover everything, multiple channels for music, cartoons, sci fi, drama, and so on. I had my first official, getting a paycheck job, at 15. We all got allowances before we started working from mom and dad but it was dependent on us not only doing our chores but doing them properly. If I didnt mow the lawn up to my dads standards, I did it again and he would probably find something extra for me to do. [/QUOTE]
