I do this with my daughter at the library! We go pick a movie to watch as a family and it’s a great experience

When it wasn't there but it was in the check in box when you asked... Pure bliss

Nothing beat going to Blockbuster and seeing the shelf empty - but asking the clerk to check the return box and finding your movie. 🤣

But we adults are the one taking this all away… so we are to blame.

We learned delayed gratification which is such a struggle to teach our kids now!

But also having to brainstorm together to pick another movie was part of the fun!

This is one of the reasons we go to the movies. Go see the Minecraft movie, we go home, he wants to watch it at home, “sorry kid it’s not out to stream for a few months.”

This is exactly why I’ve decided no more movies. Needs to be a special thing to watch a movie. Now with streaming services it’s always there

I would still go to blockbuster. I loved walking trying to decide what i wanted or waiting for people to return in hopes they returned the one you wanted

Having these experiences as a kid but now, living in a space with so much instant gratification at my fingertips, it’s so easy to forget what waiting was like. Thankful to grow up when I did but also having to remind myself that waiting is okay.

I can remember on weekends I visited my dad - we would rent a VCR and then pick two VHS tapes. And we loved it. Felt like royalty!!!! Ahhhhh the 80s.

my daughter was so confused with commercials and the ability to not find something you wanted to watch when she went over to Grandma's house or a friend's house.

Trying to explain to our kids how hard it used to be to watch stuff is the new “I had to walk to school 10 miles up hill both ways in the snow.” We would love to have you on our podcast to talk about screen time in a fun, honest, non judgemental, pro screen time environment.

Instant gratification is a challenge for adults too lol. In a world of streaming services, food delivery, and online services it’s a tough ask to try to train our kids to have patience when we, as adults, are struggling with the concept ourselves.

You can build in anticipation and disappointment in other aspects- parents just have to be ok with their kids disappointment.

I had a student share the agony of no phone at the neuropsych eval appointment. Breaks between tests were limited to waiting room movies and magazines. To this generation it feels like torture.
