I've never had any restrictions on the TV as far as how much. They have to
have their homework done and chores need to be done, then they can watch it.
I've seen too many of their friends become TVaholics from their parents
restricting it, so I take the middle ground and restrict it if it is
becoming a problem and not worry about it the rest of the time. So far, the
girls just watch things that are appropriate for them and they are 13, 10,
and 9. Commercials don't bother me. We have friends in the advertising
business, so they are tuned in with the gimmicks they do to get people to
buy things, but they are unfazed by it. Some commercials are funny and we
take them at face value.
