Model says parents rely too heavily on TV to entertain kids

Heidi Klum says she believes parents rely too much on television to entertain their children.

 

The model admits she’s banned her own kids from watching TV for long periods and encourages them to play outside as much as possible.

 

Heidi says; “I’m old-fashioned, and I feel like technology ran away with everything. I don’t believe in setting your kids in front of something, always. I think that they have to do things with their hands and they have to get dirty, and they should be outside, play with the dogs, or think of something to do.”

 

What do you think? Do you feel children spend too much time in front of screens? Do you think they should play outside and create their own imaginative games? Does 'stranger danger' make you reluctant to let your children go outside to play with friends?
