It's the same as in the past when a lot of people used the television
as a babysitter while they worked. As you suggested, the better parents
limited it rather than relying on it for that.

My Niece's kids would be on their Tablets just about all waking
hours if they were not forced to do other things. I was always
amazed when they were up here at the cottage on warm sunny days
and laying on a bed or a couch inside for hours on end playing on
their Tablets, and they've been doing this since they were too
young to read..
