Wow how common is it not to own a TV set in the UK? In Singapore, TV is like synonymous with life - our poorest households still own a (large in some cases) TV set.
Good point about boredom. It’s only when we are bored that our creative juices kick in.
I’m a teacher irl n many a time have I had to stop myself from using my teacher voice on my son. Back off, Sensei. You gotta sound less stern, I tell myself lol
I know a few people also living without TV, but it's definitely still not the norm.
I've successfully weaned myself off TV over the years. My early days without tv was before the smart phone and social media era, and I didn't have broadband at home, so I used to read a lot, particularly Russian and French classics. Yes, I was never bored. 😇
