watching movies was always put on a pedestal

At least in my experience, parents seem to criticise their children playing video games, whilst watching TV themselves. In fact I'd rather my children play video games than binge Netflix or mindlessly scroll TikTok or watch YT etc.

Yeah I never heard a parent put movies "on a pedestal" and in fact watching TV/movies was only slightly less criticized in my house growing up
