2015-07-09 21:47:00| Telecompaper Headlines
(Telecompaper) The TV has become the second screen for kids with tablets in the US, according to a survey of 800 parents of children aged 2 to 12, from Miner. TV has become the 'second' or even third screen for many of kids in homes where tablets and smartphones are available. Parents in nearly half of these households say that when their kids misbehave, they take away their tablet and make them 'watch TV instead' as punishment, creating a generation of kids for whom 'TV is punishment.' And, when given the choice between dessert or more time on their tablet more kids choose the tablet. Milner writes that its findings have implications for TV networks, cable and satellite companies, streaming services and content creators as they market and develop entertainment for the next generation.
