Comment on And they even get a seizure when you take their ipads away
MirthfulAlembic@lemmy.world 1 day agoI was at a friends and family barbecue recently, and it just so happened none of the parents there brought tablets for their kids. It was just kids running around the backyard being kids. The parents generally let them do whatever but were attentive enough to prevent them climbing on the shed and stuff.
I can’t remember the last time there wasn’t some kid glued to a screen at that type of party. It was a joy to see.

my brother’s got six kids. whenever he visits, first thing he and his wife do is go to sleep. they wake up for meals, then go back to sleep. now, i love my nieces and nephews, but i don’t invite my brother over to be unpaid babysitters. i invite them over to see the family. so, we don’t invite them over much anymore.

That’s too many kids. Poor things can’t get the parental attention they need :(
