confession

As of the past 2 days, I have utterly given up.  Uncle.  I am no longer resisting.

The TV is now a babysitter while I get bags/breakfasts ready in the morning, and for about 20min when we get home at night so I can start dinner.  AND DS is in the pnp while I do this.  Even in a padded room, he'd find a way to climb something eat something break something hurt himself......

I just hate doing it b/c the tv is on half the day at daycare as it is, they don't need more.  I'm not against the tv, but as much as they already watch, I hate to do more.  And I HATE putting him in the pnp.  I keep thinking of Back To The Future when he meets Uncle Jailbird Joey "get used to those bars, kid"

He's a trainwreck.  I give.  I've also decided I don't like Toy Story much.

  • Claire has probably logged 2 hours a day of tv since jack was born  I feel awful about it.  Your half-hour-ish is nothing compared to that!  I give you a free pass :)

  • I don't like that movie either. Don't feel bad, you gotta do what you gotta do.
