At what point did you stop watching your shows around Alex, or did you start that from the beginning?
At the very beginning, like when I was on my 3-month maternity leave, I watched anything at all in front of her. I think by the time she was Boo's age I had stopped watching stuff with a lot of violence, gore, or angry shouting, because I wasn't sure when it would start disturbing her. I still watched home improvement shows, cooking shows, baseball, and televised poker when she was awake and around. She mostly ignored them, and I tried to make sure that she was positioned so that the screen was behind her back.
We stopped watching our shows in front of her entirely when she was... I guess she was about one, or a little older. We stopped because she had started paying attention to the screen.
