I wonder if you have any advice regarding my parenting problem.
I am personally very strict with my daughter (2.5 years old). After she comes home from kindergarten, she sleeps and after she wakes up, my wife let'slets her watch tvTV.
Anytime I am home, I don't allow watching too much tvTV, because I know it is bad. I would rather have my daughter want to go out with me. Visit: visiting her grandparents, her aunt. Friends. Or, friends, or just going to the playground.
But since she has developed the habit of watching tvTV, she doesn't have the zest to do any activities beside it.
I constantly try to persuade my wife, that watching tvTV is actually bad for our daughter. But she insists, that even toddlers need downtime after kindergarten. Which is okTV. But I am afraid that whenever I am not home, she is watching too much.
Recently every time I am home, my daughter doesn't like me anymore, because she knows I take away the tvTV or ipad,iPad when I believe that she has watched enough.
That makes me the bad one. And I wonder if I just should let my toddler watch whatever she wants, or keep trying to persuade my wife to restrict her screen time. ThoughUnfortunately, I believe my wife will expand screen time, behind my back, because she does not believe, that toddlers that age, should be restricted in anything that makes them happy.
Any advice for future actions?
