Side note: DS7 woke before 4 a.m. (!!!) yesterday and watched TV until I got up at 8. I only found out that this had gone on after the fact or it would NOT have gone on!!!
Needless to say, it was NOT a good day for us! He was tired, cranky, and had OD'd on TV. He was bored and listless, utterly incapable of entertaining himself or playing nicely with his brother, and he cried at the drop of a hat.
We had a chat about the need for sleep and the house limits on TV time, even in the morning...
Ugh.
So I might also recommend making sure the kids get enough shut-eye along with the limits on TV. Personal experience being what it is and all...
