Is 7 hours of screen time ok?

Okay, so, is 7 hours of screen time okay? Hmm…

Seven hours glued to a screen? Honestly, that makes my head spin just thinking about it! It’s a little unsettling to imagine how strained my eyes would feel after that long, and I know I’d be totally missing out on real-life connections. I mean, think about it – that’s almost a whole workday!

While everyone’s different, I get that, that much screen time just doesn’t feel healthy or balanced to me. I’d be worried about neglecting other important things, like, you know, going for a walk, actually talking to people face-to-face (remember that?!), or even just reading a real book. And frankly, I’d probably be pretty bored and restless, too. I remember one time I spent a whole Saturday binge-watching a show, and by the end of it, I felt totally drained and kinda… guilty? Like I’d wasted the whole day.

So yeah, 7 hours? Sounds like a lot. Maybe a little too much, at least for me. But hey, you do you, right? Just something to think about, I guess!
