That can't always be the solution. Ya it sucks caving in but it sucks more having to balance your day to day life with a family and having to severely limit what your kids sees because there hasn't been time in the week to download the latest TV craze for them. The typical day to day person just doesn't have a minute in the day to spare ESPECIALLY nowadays. It's fair

I don't think it's fair when I have to bust my ass as long as I do for pennies while major brands are reaping record profits year over year. Seems more like an unbalanced scales of justice to me. You and I don't have many hours in the day, yet the big dogs who make literally millions per year can go play golf, fly for a vacation for a month, etc. Who's working harder? I'm not asking for the world. I'm asking for fair pay and fair costs. If I'm struggling, my pay is not fair. If you're record breaking profits every year are successful, you aren't setting fair costs.

I cut netflix and disney a year back and my kid hasn't mentioned them. age at 5 years old could be a factor - 10 might be different and harder to resist. He's hardly had any media growing up saying that. Wasn't really a planned thing so as with any parenting matters I get its whatever works for your mental survival. I have a couple of seasons of the 3 shows he has watched in the past on a Plex server incase of desperate times. Yaharrrr .
