We have No TV Days at home too: Mini Mathur
My daughter, Sairah, who is three, is a too young to get addicted, but my eight-year-old son Vivaan does whine a bit over the No TV Days we have at home once a week. Those days could turn into a week-long affair if he’s up to some mischief. I’ve realised that it’s the best punishment.
The other day, we were discussing HT’s campaign and how we weren’t going to watch TV on Saturday and Vivaan pointed out that No TV Days were a regular in our home.
It’s difficult to focus with the TV on. I never let my children watch it during meals unless they’re unwell. Fortunately, Vivaan is so busy during the week that TV watching is limited to a few hours on the weekend.
But as a child you grew up with the TV too?
We were only allowed to watch the Sunday movie. We had a black-and-white set that was a luxury few could afford. And neighbours would come to watch too, and my mother and aunt would quickly finish cooking dinner that day.
I still remember the cartoon they screened before the movie to instill civic sense. And sitcoms like Idhar Udhar and Yeh Jo Hai Zindagi and Ramayan.
But apart from those two hours on Sunday, we were climbing trees or paddling in the stream behind my nani’s (grandmother’s) house in Amritsar.
