I see a lot of similar guideline comments of no screen time etc. While I agree and follow the same general advice of no screen or only supervised by me in person, I do think I am a bit of an hypocrite. Ever since I remember I watched cartoons on any available time I had. I always enjoyed the computer as well. I started by playing games when I was 6 but that was the start of the career I have today. Meaning: I watched lots of tv and lots of computer and I turned out fine, so why make such a fuss about it? Also HN is quite a bubble in this matter. I literally do not know any parent as strict as I am with tv or electronic device. Most of my parent friends tell me I am going full taliban, as they too had screen time and are functioning individuals.
All this to caution that HN might not be the most diverse place to get opinions nor they seem to be optimising for something that actually matters as evidence by much proof to the contrary.
