play no games – Stand strong! I did the same as you and it was not easy! There were so many times that it would have been great to have a video babysit the kids but I pushed myself and I am so glad I did.

My oldest is 20, youngest is 6 and I have the hindsight to say that it was worth every drop of sweat for just the reasons you say. And you know what the hardest part was? It was how my friends who wanted to limit videos couldn’t keep it up after so many years and they would give me such a hard time. I had a few people tell me the thought it was great that I was able to do this for my kids, and some told me how sorry they were for opening pandoras box because it evolved into more than they had wanted, but some friends were just mean. They felt it was important to let me know that there was no value in my mehalach and what could be so wrong with videos anyway. They put a lot of pressure on me to doubt myself and it was hard.

But I see the difference and it is really worth it if you really believe in it and can present it appropriately. The 2D presentation really does zombie them out and, honestly, not just while they sit there but for a while afterwards. If you think you can take on the challenge, I wish you the koach to succeed!
