I'm sorry, I can't agree with your point. You were generalizing, I showed you an instance were what you said didn't hold; and I know more cases. You bet that train videos were boring to kids and I proved you wrong in the general case. > Is a switched off screen addictive too? This question is absurd. A switched off screen is, for all intents and purposes, not a screen. My argument is that my kid and many others are instantly attracted to screens as long as they show motion and sound, and that it doesn't have to be a children's cartoon or song. Switched on screens remain powerful attractors for many children. |

The GP was!
> I'm sorry, I can't agree with your point.
At least we're getting somewhere!
gp: Screens are extremely addictive to kids
me: wrong, any kid will not like train video
you: wrong, mine is, the screen itself is addictive.
me: no, screen are not systematically addictive per-se, the addiction lies in the viewer's behavior when consuming a specific content, or are switched off screens intrinsically addictive?
you: this is absurd, a switch off screen is not a screen, let me rephrase for you: switched on screens remain powerful attractors for many children
Next round is where we agree that, actually, its the content showed on a switched on screen that can or cannot trigger attraction for a child: yours is ok with trains, mines are not.
But I'll stop here, that was fun, but I've got some other things to handle.
