    I would say to my parents… “Hey, this is unfair I am learning and creating on mine craft, I’m learning and being active on Wii sports or just-dance. This is not screen time this is learning.

    you can persuade them by showing them 100% educational apps, such as any coding apps, or learning apps.

    Screen time is very useful there are millions of apps that allow you to express yourself freely. I believe that the parents don’t understand that screens are not just things we stare at that all day. They need o know that screens are something that allows you to express your self and even be active. For example Just dance allows kids dance and jump just by following one screen another active app is Wii Sports it allows you to play all different kind of sports while of course being active! This shows how screens are no just screens that kids stare at all day to become no active. In addition as I said in my last comment kids can also be Creative on apps like roblox, minecraft and others. -Pearl πŸ™‚

    Parents are you worried that my eyes will pop out because I am playing Mario cart ? Or maybe because I am playing Minecraft and building a house. But you see for Mario cart I am getting up and moving with the little plastic steering wheel that I use so in a way it is good for my arms. And for Minecraft I am building a house and learning about architecture, and surviving in the wild. For all the other screen time it can be educational and teaches me about something, that is why screens are good and why you should let me play 1 more hour. πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚

    Fortnite can give you good choice making by thinking should I attack this guy or should I stay hidden. It can also give you surviving skills by knowing how to do what. Can you see what I mean. This is why Fortnite should infuence you.

    An activity that is active is Just Dance. It may seem like any other video game like fortnite to parents, but it is a way to stay active when it is hot, cold, or raining you stay active. Just Dance is an active game where you can dance to the motions on the screen. It can also challange yourself on different levels. And you can do it with a group, a friend or even alone. Also games like wii sports have the same concept.

    Wii Sports your active and not watching people live there life and sitting on the couch for 3 hours. In Wii Sports your running and exercising. It is good for you and it is really a lot of fun. Just Dance is also good for you. You are also exercising. You might be starring at screen ,but it is still good for you
