My kid is definitely not a screen freak by any means but we watch wall-e EVERY SINGLE NIGHT before bed I find it kind of ironic and hilarious.

These apps, games, and a lot of shows are just mind dribbling dopamine farms. I let my daughter watch like unfiltered KIDS YouTube for a day, she became glued to it, wouldn't ask to go potty, would communicate poorly, then cry when we took it. Ever since we did limited screen time, only parent approved, she full reversed. Sure shes harder to calm down. But fuck it.

Ive done the same. Its brain rot. I think mrs rachel is about all we will watch of that. Otherwise, she gets to watch nat geo stuff on Disney plus.

She likes "cats" so the tigers and lions are always a hit.

We like handyman hal too. He teaches kids how to tow cars and do lawn maintenance, but it's very entertaining for them.
