And what’s my problem with TV?

I have very strong feelings regarding how much TV my children should watch. There are plenty of things, other than watch TV, that children can do…LIKE PLAY. So, I allow them to watch one ½ hour program a day and that takes place after the playroom is cleaned-up and while I am trying to make dinner. However, today the kids are not feeling so well. So, instead of railing against them this morning, I have decided to give in and set them in front of the television. It is so quiet in my house? There is no gnashing of teeth, rolling of eyes or bearing of claws. And so, I am now pondering, why don’t I do this on a regular basis? My husband has always claimed that one needs a good 6-8 hours of TV viewing a day to be a well rounded person. Maybe he is right. Just imagine the endless possibilities of what I could get done while the TV raised my children.
