I grew up without TV and I can see today how much more creative stuff I did and I still do compared to others. Since 4 months we do not have a TV anymore. The girls never watched a lot anyway. They can watch things on the computer/ internet and I prefer it that way. Like this I can choose the good stuff. And as you wrote- it is/ becomes something magical, something special. Unfortunately my mother in law places the kids too much in front of the TV and I can see that more than 80% of those kids-tv-shows are just crap... yes- the shows for the grown-ups equally too.rahelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04163997527799490294noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9003566511242003677.post-68439533994608664932011-08-12T09:21:26.479-04:002011-08-12T09:21:26.479-04:00I am ashamed at how much my kids watch TV.

Now my oldest son has a very unhealthy relationship with Yo Gabba Gabba - he asks for it all the time. And I give in a lot, partially because he is engrossed by it, which gives me a solid 25 minutes of peace (which is hard to pass up at times). Now my 10 month old watches it in awe. Ugh. I feel it's too late to go back. Oh well, I am a bit TV obsessed myself. I can't imagine not having a TV on our main floor (but I do admire you for getting rid of it!). And by the way, I do love Teen Mom. Oh, how I love my Teen Mom Tuesdays. Since I have two boys, hopefully they won't be interested in those kinds of shows like their mom. :)But I Do Have a Law Degreehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06362410549493994038noreply@blogger.com
