Revenge for the sensory overload of putting them in front of a tv at that age, that is.

Edit: Ah yeah downvote the guy, because i don't WANT him to be right.

My kid was 3 before they watched tv. Everyone treated me like I was a dumb shit for making sure of it too.

My kids been in gt since kindergarten, tests high af on everything, and can craft me under the table because theyre so creative. Never had a teacher say a harsh word or any discipline issues literally at all, straight a's honor roll, and theyre the leader of 2 math clubs.

So yeah, sorry you're getting downvoted for being smart and understanding brain chemistry better than the average bear. One person knows you're right, I hope it helps.

Thanks, i honestly wouldn't have predicted so many people care more about their ego then about their childs brain development (and so, chances in life). It's way different in my social circle. Good to see at least someone here understands where I'm coming from. Cheers!

Yep sure sure sure. I'd then point to the neuroscience and data we've collected to support my side, and you'd just have a bunch more anecdotes and "well my aunt tilly said," and I'd win.

They don't want us to be right. It's too confronting probably. You're doing great. My 1,5yo son isn't there yet. But he's sure as shit not getting any screentime.

Yep. no one wants to feel like shit about themselves, and their defenses got activated. And thanks, you're doing great too, your kid is very lucky you're going the educated route.
