“A child with minimal video and TV exposure... might be more naive about social ills but at the same time more sophisticated in inner direction, self-discipline, and the realities of her actual physical world.”
Diane Medved, Saving Childhood

“Kids need quantity time: the myth that a small amount of focused attention is just as good simply because it's labeled quality is merely a means to rationalize being away.”
Diane Medved, Saving Childhood

“Here's the truth about telling stories with your life. It's going to sound like a great idea, and you're going to get excited about it, and then when it comes time to do the work, you're not going to want to do it. It's like that with writing books, and it's like that with life. People love to have lived a great story, but few people like the work it takes to make it happen. But joy costs pain.”
Donald Miller, A Million Miles in a Thousand Years: What I Learned While Editing My Life

“Our own sense of imperfection and insecurity shouldn't prevent a conscientious effort to nourish a sense of security in our kids.”
Diane Medved, Saving Childhood

“Parents who daily read Robert Lewis Stevenson to their children and surrounds them with blocks, plastic animals, and some cardboard boxes or kitchen pots and pans are going to produce a qualitatively different child from those who spend that time on TV or videos, even if their choices ARE only Winnie the Pooh and Mr. Rogers.”
Diane Medved, Saving Childhood
