There are arguments in my house sometimes between my parents and between them and me when I want to watch my favorite TV show or when my dad wants to watch his stock news or sports or when my mom wants to watch some daily soaps.
There are no arguments when we watch a good movie together, we all enjoy it equally, or when there is a cricket match going on with INDIA playing as one of the teams.
But there are arguments when we want to watch our own TV shows.
Are there arguments in your house regarding this?

No, not really. Our rooms have at least one television so arguments like these can be avoided. And i'm not really fond of watching so i kinda let them choose what channel they want to watch.Ü

hey you are really lucky to have your own T.V set to watch whatever you wish. I wish I had my own set.


myLot reputation of 85/100. glesil_00 (886)   ranked 7,801 out of 38,384 in life  6 months ago

Watching is not my hobby and i prefer to be in front of the computer than t.v. I am not living with my family at his time so i have nothing to argue with. I do not watch tv here.
If i am with my family, i let them to watch whatever they wanted to. happy

I dont have to argue because we have DVR and so I just tape all my shows and/or movies. I dont see the point in arguing over something so minor when there is much more worse things to worry about today.


myLot reputation of 82/100. pupupd (437)   ranked 3,702 out of 38,384 in life  6 months ago

Oh that's nice, I don't have a DVR so I can't do it. Instead of buying a DVR if it's too costly, I will buy a small TV for my room. What say? How much a DVR costs normally?

That happens most of the time in our house. I live with my dad and brother and we really have different TV show preferences. They are into basketball and something sport related show. I'm not fond of watching such. So,we argue most of the time.


myLot reputation of 82/100. pupupd (437)   ranked 3,702 out of 38,384 in life  6 months ago

yes, the situation in your house is similar to that in my. Even my show preferences are very distinct from that of my parents. I love watching English action movies, my mom hates it. I love watching supernatural TV shows, but my parents dislike it. I can't help thinking about my new TV set.

I think the DVR cost about $50 here. It may be different where you are.

Well honestly there are some arguments in our house sometimes regarding who's going to watch TV. Most of the time the remote stays with me. My sister is the main person involved in the argument. I like watching sports while she wants to watch her boring serials. But after some arguing either she or I give the other the remote and start enjoying the shows together.
This is what family is all about sharing and loving each other, in every possible way.
