When did you put a TV in your kids room? (self.dads)

My eldest is 5, and for the most part (tonight aside) she's pretty good at going to sleep. All of her cousins who are younger have a small TV in their room, or are allowed a tablet whilst going to bed.

I personally think she's too young. I was 10-11 when I first got a TV in my room, and that was restricted to 4 channels that really didn't have much to engage an 11 year old at 8pm.

So yeah. Thoughts?

Never. There’s also no TV in any other bedroom, or the kitchen.

I know I can’t stop a tablet or whatever at some point in the future.
