Although a great many folk will have been watching re-runs of her old films over Christmas, Emily Watson, the War Horse star, says she has no intention of letting her own children, Juliet, six, and Dylan, two, become couch potatoes.
The 44-year-old actress, left, points to research that shows too much screen time for children â be it television or a computer â endangers their ability to develop empathy with real people.
âCredit to my own parents for bringing me up without a television,â the 44-year-old actress says, empathetically. - The Telegraph
Or is empathy a keyword for an ability to relate to reality at all?

You aspies are some of the most unempathetic fucks I've ever had the displeasure of being aware of in my life. When some family's house burns down while firefighters who already hauled their fat asses over there you say HURR DURR GOOD FOR THEM CUZ THEY DIDNT PAY DA 50 BUX. You're a bunch of fucking imbeciles. In fact, I'd say the trolls are the empathetic ones. Our collective rage at your stupidity and emotional numbness is what propels us until we see this shithole completely destroyed.
