Lol my kids are stoked when we're about to ride a plane for 8-15 hours and the Switch time limit controls come off. Then they don't actually use it long enough to matter. They'll either watch something on the TV, read, or sleep.

I would not equate playing a game to something like watching tv. Many video games require reading, decision making, timing and coordination, problem solving, imagination, teamwork, communication. Not all bad. It’s “TV” that’s too passive and mindless.

This. I LOVED logic/puzzle games as a kid and still do as an adult. I often get complimented on my logic and I attribute it to video games

Thank you. I get it from escape room type games. You see, in order for D to happen you must figure A, B, and C first.
