If my boss walks in on me watching a movie at work and asks me to get back to work. I would have no problem "coping" with that and a getting back to work . My boss doesnt send me an alter that work is coming . There is never a "conflict". Not sure where all this advice for obsessive parenting is coming from, lets enjoy our time with our kids instead of designing alert systems or obsessing over their physcology . Kids are not small sized adults .Please...

  I grew up in shut the TV and do the homework world ..yea it sucked but its not any worse than many other things that i had  no control upon.

One problem might be that a lot of parents think they have to be the bosses of their kids. Or worse - for once they have someone in their life who has to respect and obey them.

Yes, but you're also not 8, and fully understand the "this is my fault because I'm not supposed to be watching a movie now" part.
