As a parent I like it.

It’s just enough time for my kiddo to learn the value of patience. But not so long, that I need to fast forward.

My four year old already knows how to use the remote to skip commercials and credits, turn the tv on himself, and find what he wants.

Hasn’t figured out the voice controlled outlet the TV is plugged into yet.

do we assign too much meaning and value to every child interaction?

[JoeAltmaier]

Not really possible. Children are sponges, learning everything they will carry into adulthood from childhood say six through twelve. After that, good luck.

Any veteran parent can give many examples of early interactions that ended up molding their children forever.

Do you have kids yourself?
