I think that it is the parents right as a care giver to restrict any activity that they believe is harmful to the child, as long is no other harm is being done in the process. There really is no such thing as a normal life. I wasnt allowed to watch much TV growing up, because everyone said it was bad for your eyes. So my parents bought me some outside toys to go play with me friends.
I think having friends requires social and physical interactions as opposed to sitting infront of the TV.
Although in that respect, the flat screen TV is way better for our eyes, as it does not flicker the feed as a tube TV did. So who to say that when these new 3D screens come out, that they will not be better. Smoother, less choppy images are better. and in my guess, if it looks more real, it might trick the brain into NOT having a seizure, as it is something shown very similar in "real life" *not sure if I am explaining that right...*
example: you are watching rain in the 3D technology, you can see it in your peripheral vision, and you can see it infront of you. rain falls at varying speeds and sizes. 3D images in Avatar show the rain drops as tiny spots of static, so that is what set me off. as the rain drops flickered instead of acting like natural rain. Now if this technology were to improve, they may be able to mimic the natual fall of rain. Therefore I would not have a seizure, as real life rain does not bother me....
did that make sense?
EDIT: I agree with Robin as well. please re-read my previous post.
