Why or why not? What is too young to have a TV in a chld's room. Do you let them watch it until they fall asleep?
I'm a little old school and I like the idea of only having one
television in the house to help monitor what my children are watching
and bring the family together.
No because I don't think they need one.
Dd has a tv. It's been in there since she was 5.
theres no tv (at all) on school nights. And when she was younger, she had access to only specific channels.
She has had a TV since she was tiny. I would use it when I had to get up for midnight feeding and rocking. Since she got used to falling asleep in our room with the TV on (cosleeper by the bed, I would stay in there with her and watch TV), it used to help her fall asleep with the sound on low. Now she is allowed 1/2 hour of Stephanie shows in bed then TV off and to sleep (usually ends up in our room after TV is off)
My son has a tv in his room but it only plays dvd's. We probably use it a handful of times a year. My son is not and has never been a huge tv watcher and my husband and I really aren't either.
My girls have one but they only watch on the weekends. The only thing they can watch are their dvd's so I don't worry about them watching something that they aren't supposed to. They don't really like to watch to much t.v. They watch maybe one movie a week, sometimes only one movie every other week. When they do watch t.v, they like to turn it into movie night. They cuddle with the dogs and eat popcorn.
