My children only watch childrens channels I dint let them watch adult daytime tv or soaps though I'd like to for my own sake. I'm sick of cartoons!
We are out a lot only really watch for an hour in the morning while I'm showering, getting school gear ready and sometimes an hour after school but we have swimming and ballet and play dates so that's certainly not every night.
We do have film nights some weekends where I make a big bowl if popcorn and we all snuggle on the sofa and watch something a bit more grown up such as the narnia or Harry potter films. But we are there to explain any thing they are worried about and so far no nightmares. It's really helped their imagination. A few weeks ago my daughter made a spell and potions book. I thought that was great. They are 5.6 and 3.6yrs old
I agree daytime tv or big bro isn't suitable for young or even older primary kids. YANBU
