do moms still watch tv??

[Danielle]

  do you all have time to watch tv, do you make time?? i can remember when my children were little and i had to time for it, they are 9 and 10, and i still don't watch tv, its on disney or icarly, or hooked up to the playstation 3, really, i i sit down i will fall asleep because i do so much during the day.. give me your thoughts..

I actually watch TV in the winter, not so much in the summer. Sometimes I just leave it on for the noise.

You are not missing much!  icarly is about as good as grownup tv these days ...jmho

I DVR all my programs and watch them after the kids are in bed. Occasionally my eyes cross and I zonk out, but I try to keep up with the three or four programs that I really love. Among my faves is The Soup on E.   Actually it's the only thing on E that I'll actually watch.

During the day tho, our living room TV is almost exclusively tuned to Nick. Who am I kidding, the big screen belongs to the kids. I have to ask before I can change the channel. I have become a fan of the icarly though, my one year old likes to dance to the theme song.

     you know, i dvr alot to, because my big screen belongs to my children too LOL but like right now, my 9 year old daughter is watching tv, and it 9pm by the
time she goes to bed, i am ready for bed!! i guess justformoms is my tv for the night!! LOL

My kids are no where near going to bed yet, everything goes out the window during summer vacation. We're still waiting for my husband to bring home milkshakes.  I know, I'm a bad mommy.

I use the DVR too. I watch American Idol. I watch Survivor. I watch Hell's Kitchen. Then I watch old t.v. shows, such as Murphy Brown.

[Danielle]

you are not a bad mommy its summer live it up milkshake sounds good me and my daughter might make a night run to sonic!! lol

[captain_mommy]

oooo Sonic! We don't have any up here; I miss them!

I don't really have much time to watch TV either; I think in the winter I might have more time but since I'm still in school homework takes precedence where summer fun leaves off. I just called the cable company today and told them to remove the cable since it's never on anyway.

[Danielle]

i feel ya honey, if i didn't have children i would not have cable.. too uch tv is not good for children..when i was my children's age, my mom made me stay outside.. it good for your body..kids now a days don't ever go outside.. my my how times have changed

[captain_mommy]

ugh; for sure! My kids whine that it's too hot outside... puhleeze, when I was a kid we didn't have a/c.... okay well it was invented but we still played outside all day and didn't lounge in the house.

[Danielle]

  you r speakin the truth our kids are spoiled am i right??!!!

I DVR shows and watch after my son goes to bed at 8 everynight. During the day we are outside and playing.  He loves watching Elmo during breakfast and that is it for tv for us.  I encourage outside and fresh air because it is good for both of us.  He loves outside especially when I am watering my plants and flowers.  I also love putting him in his stroller and taking a walk around our neighborhood.  We have fun and get active at the same time. 

[Danielle]

  he is soo adorable!! treasure every moment with him they grow up soo fast!! i am glad to hear go go outside with me, it is good for his health and yours as well, keep up the good work!! i think you r doing a great job!!

[MommyAnna]

DVR is really the only way to watch TV for me.  Even then, I only have time for one show after the kids have gone to bed.  Assuming I don't have to do dishes, laundry, etc.   Otherwise I watch what my son watches.  Some of kids shows are actually pretty clever.  I love SpongeBob!
