Screen time is an area where I feel very guilty as a mom because DS3.5 rarely asks for it, but I find myself suggesting it to get a break. I'm the one who needs a limit, sigh. I am trying to offer to play with him more because he's still at the point where he'll pick me over the screen, but I'm not sure how long this will last. It's definitely not a great mommy moment when I'm the one saying, "Wouldn't you like to watch a movie now?"
Again, kid-dependent: I would look at it and ask "is it serving him well as a person?" (i.e. not just in terms of academic content, but in terms of whole-child development) and make a plan based on that.
This puts a lot of things into perspective for me.
