I have no idea what is going on with the game I am watching right now....it is just on for some noise!
-
Always. My brain probably looks like those fried eggs in the drug commercials. The TV is ALWAYS on.
-
I, sadly, am one of those people who falls asleep easier with the computer streaming something. Terrible habit, but I still sometimes indulge it if the little one is asleep.
-
all the time. it makes me feel less alone when i'm home =)
-
I don't. I like silence. My DH does though. He needs background noise to drown out the ringing in his ears.
-
All the time! I can do most of my work with the TV on; I like it because it makes me feel like I'm not doing work, so I'm more inclined to do it...very high school.
-
All the time. Our house it so quiet otherwise, even with 2 kids haha
-
All the time
-
all the time! if i don't have music playing or npr streaming, the t.v. is on. i download my favorite shows from my childhood and keep them on for background noise while i work--things i've seen a million times before, so i don't need to pay attention to them. right now my current background noise is the andy griffith show.
-
All the time!
-
Yes - but only if I am the slightest bit interested in what is going on in that show, otherwise I'll turn it off. I have the TV on pretty much all day and just glance at it every now and then. As soon as I leave the room I'll turn it off though - it does seem weird when you go into someone's house and the TV is on and no one is in the room.
-
Always! Silence drives me crazy.
-
Not any more. I need some quiet time.
-
I used to before I had a LO. Now there is always something to be done (even when she's napping)so I'm just so busy when I get home From work that it doesn't occur to me to turn it on. But my husband always puts on sports center as soon as he walks in the door. And then we usually watch one show together after the baby goes to sleep.
-
I have the TV on while I'm doing other things, but I always pay attention to it. If I find that I can't concentrate on both I turn the TV off. I only have it on when LO is sleeping so I feel like it's better to have quiet anyway so she won't hear it and wake up.
-
All the time!
-
A lot of the times I do
-
DH does, but I prefer it to not be on. I can't stand noise. If I'm watching it, then it's on, but I don't like it to be on for the sake of being on.
-
yep! my tv is ALWAYS on, even while going to bed. we leave the sleep timer on so it turns off by itself once we've fallen asleep. if my hubs is out of town and im alone, i leave the tv on all night.
-
I use to always have our tv because I needed that background noise, but my oldest son loves the tv and will sit and watch it all day, no matter whats on, so I started leaving it off. Now it stays off almost all day until my SO gets home from work.
-
No I hate having the TV on if I am not watching it. I tolerate my husband watching TV in to the night while I try and sleep.
-
I don't. I like silence. DH & I are complete opposites, turning on the tv is the first thing he does when he walks in.
-
Yep, all the time. SO doesn't understand why I will sometimes be reading a book or surfing the web while I have the TV on. The TV is just there for background noise. When I'm falling asleep, I usually turn on a show I've seen a million times so I don't really have to pay attention to it and can kinda just listen and drift off.
-
When it was just me I would. Now that LO is here and very curious it doesn't usually get turned on until he's in bed for the night. Then DH and I will watch something. Sometimes I'll turn it on during naptime while I'm folding laundry or something but not often.
-
Not usually, I like the quiet. Although I do turn it to the music stations while doing chores sometimes.
-
All the time. Thank the creators of Netflix for keeping me sane during my mat leave. LO never notices the TV (except she dances to theme songs and commercial tunes) so I'm not worried about her 'watching TV' she is more interested in her own things.
-
Always! I can't stand it being too quiet!
-
Never, I hate the tv as background noise. I usually have music playing from pandora or just an album.
-
all the time! but i really want to work on turning it off more. it's just hard!
-
Yes - I put the sleep timer on because I know I'll fall asleep. DH needs silence, so I enjoy when he's out and I get to fall asleep to the noise of crappy tv shows
-
Always! I can't stand the house being quiet. We sleep with the tv on, too.
