[QUOTE="tiredmommy, post: 353107, member: 1722"] Duckie is really getting hooked on her DSi. I had to pry her away from it's electronic grips several times yesterday to get her to do [B]anything[/B] else. Then, she got up this morning and went right for it. So, husband and I told her there would now be some time limits: one hour on each non-school day and a half hour on school days. She's very unhappy and even tried to give an ultimatum: one hour each day or nothing. :rofl: She asked (angrily) what she should do with all this extra time: homework, chores, crafts, reading, play outside, spend time with her family. [B]"But I don't want to spend time with my family!"[/B] She's already calmed down (taking it like a easy child, in my opinion) but I thought it was funny enough to share. Also, I wanted to know how much electronics time other parents allow their kids. I'd like to be on the low side since she has activities and a fairly busy social life. [/QUOTE]
