TV? Like IPTV you mean? Haven't had regular TV since moving out two decades ago. I could but naturally my kids have all already experienced the "select what you want to watch" era already so putting that genie back is just unnecessary conflict and borderline cruel. And IPTV services also cost money unless you go the free piracy route but then reliability goes out the window in my experience.

I'd just let my kids play with bugs/friends outside then tbh over paying for netflix

Of course they do that as well, but a day is long and I live far out in the woods, nearest friend is at least 5 min by car and they're too young to bike there alone.

Plus what do you think kids these days talk about with their friend? Hell even I that grew up with cable TV spent most time with my friends talking about and playing out our favorite shows. At that age.

Wdym the nearest friend is far, the bugs on the trees are literally right there! They're friends too.

Tho good point on the last part. Indeed even as a kid if we weren't strategizing about how to best drown some ants we were talking about Dragonball Z or Gormiti.
