    burden, especially in comparison to how greatly growing up screen-free enriched my childhood. Although my daily life was predominantly screen-free, there were two notable exceptions. My brother was constantly in and out of hospitals: so much so that I count St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital among my childhood homes. The perk of being in hospitals (and hotels, and the Target House or Ronald McDonald House), is the rampant availability of cable television. Though I never watched enough cable…
