@thewarminghouse I'm holding off as long as possible, for two reasons, 1)
I don't want to be come dependent on it , I have a lot of mom guilt as it is, and I don't want to add to it, and 2) ToddlerMermaid is too smart for her own good, she remember things we did ONCE, I know it wouldn't be a "just xyz" time, she would lose her effing mind all the time, and I don't want to do that to her.
I considered getting her a baby fire tablet for her 3rd birthday and have decided against it. I'm very fortunate that she loves car rides, and is generally easy to please, and she's an only child, basically (her brother is 23 years older).
People would roast me like a marshmallow if I told you what the age I'm considering it is. However, while that age is "high", I won't have issue with her using a laptop/computer before then, the 100% mobility of a tablet/touch screen is what the big issue is for me, which is why I want her to be older.
