Jay Martinez Dot Blog: I'm a Parent Now

  • Phillip (aka @PhillyMac) · 3 months ago
    Welcome to parenthood. May I recommend a TiVo. As a father of four (very soon to be five) I find it indispensable. For us so we can time shift the shows for our enjoyment later - which allows us to give the kids complete attention. For the kids because we can TiVo 6-8 or so shows of their favorites (Backyardigans, Fresh Beat Band, etc.) and the lineup keeps changing so they don't get tired of watching the same ones until they're dead beyond measure.

    Have fun dad!

    Best,
    Phillip

    PS I would recommend never watching shows like fringe or Heroes with the kids. Even the atmosphere those shows create impacts little minds and bodies.
