This is not a criticism post or intended to start a bunfight.
I see a lot on here people saying that while they wfh their DC spend most of the day on screens. And they feel guilty about it and feel the DC are neglected.
However, surely this isn't really the case for most DC. And parents shouldn't worry so much. Surely they spend a chunk of their day playing with their toys, doing arts and crafts/colouring/drawing, playing in the garden (if lucky enough to have one), reading books and doing a bit of school work? There's also a lot of decent tv they could watch or educational games to play on the tablet/laptop.
Of course it must be very difficult wfh with DC but I just think parents should stop beating themselves up about it. I'm not in that position myself but I've been at home with mine while unwell with Covid. So they've had to fend for themselves.
