So I was reading this article and thought it would be interesting to see what everyone with kids does. Here is that article:
"
Reuters reports that Bill Gates revealed to a business audience in Ottawa that he put a limit to the time his10-year-old daughter spends on gaming.
"
She became very avid and discovered a lot of computer games, including one that runs on the Xbox 360 called Viva Piņata, where you take care of your garden," Gates revealed. "She could spend two or three hours a day on this Viva Piņata, because it's kind of engaging and fun."
Gates and his wife Melinda have decided to set a limit for game playing of 45 minutes a day and an hour on weekends.
Contrary to what you would expect, being the son of Bill Gates doesn’t mean you get to play Xbox 360 with no limits." -

I'll start this off. So my kids are 6 and 8 and go to private school so they have homework. We maybe allow 10-20min a night if they are done with their homework, baths and reading. Since they go to bed at 8pm this gives them one night a week normally. On weekends we let them play maybe 2-3 hours total for the weekend this includes xbox and DS time. Again they have to complete homework first before they can.
