Mommy, Daddy, turn off the laptop, television - Salon 24

Letter kilkunastomiesi?cznego boy to parents:

“ Mommy, Daddy, so I’d love to talk with you , but I can not even speak well.

When I try to tell you that you turn on me a story . Then forget what I wanted to tell you. On the screen I see the mysterious world of strange little men. I have to be vigilant, because the images change so quickly.

How tired I video, I can press the “button” and I have another, there are so many. More interesting is to look at how children are playing on the screen than arrange yourself a tower of bricks.

watch the evening at bedtime fairy tales . Sometimes at night I wake up. Why did you hurt me head I like how I can see your favorite cartoon, I quickly fell asleep again.

Sometimes I have such a beautiful “colorful dreams”, all afraid of me, I’m SUCH strong , as Superman.

Mommy, Daddy, let’s go for a walk, and then read to me book.
