Do you fight with your family members to get remote while watching TV???

Yes we do. We have 3 units of TV in our home and all three of them have the same brand. The bad thing is that we only use one remote control for these three units because the other two remote controls were busted. Now, we have to argue who will use the remote first, whoever will arrive last can use the remote the least. Another thing is that my dad wants to watch ball games while me and my mom want the channels with soap-operas. It's a lot of trouble.

Yeah, I fight with my little brother whenever he likes to watch cartoon and I like to watch the news . But, nothing serious really. We don't take a grudge to each other. Fighting for the remote is just normal stuff in our house now. I always win 'cause I'm older besides he can watch cartoons whenever but the local news just airs in a certain time. It's fun though, fighting for the remote control, some sort of bonding time with my little bro in a way.

hello,

We dont usually fight for the remote control . I will just tell my husband to change the channel to what I like .
But now my son, 4 year old, know now how to change channels, he usually gets the remote from his daddy

take care

ha ha ha ha ha ha ha lol yes it was when I was young I used to do that thats not the case now .....good discussion wow

Yes, my kids fight over the remote sometimes. My daughter wants to watch her show, my son wants to watch his. My son usually wins because he is 5 and he will cry and she will give in. Sometimes he will kick her or pull her hair if she doesn't hand it over. Usually he just cries though.

No, we don't fight about it. IF I am watching t.v., everyone hands the remote over because I don't watch t.v. much at all. If my husband is watching t.v., he has it. If my kids are watching t.v., my husband or I control the remote so they don't argue.

It is give and take in out house if football is on we watch that over anything else.Thanks to the sky channel I can watch news during the day,we all like the same things really so there is not a problem in our house.

No we don't fight for remote when watching t.v. because we have extra t.v. sets and outlets. So if one doesn't like what the other is watching they just go to a different t.v. set to watch. Thanks.

well i have two sets but have only two channels to browse...doordarshan...ha ha ha i dont have cable network... never needed it...

That's the one thing I never had to worry about, because when I was young, there was no remote TV, and when I was married, my husband didn't care to watch TV so I had the remote, and now, I live with my old mother and she has her TV in her room and I have my TV in my room so we don't have to share any remotes!
