This is entirely contrary to my experience. My kids have slightly looser controls in the summer, tighter during the school year and it just doesn't work like that. My kids watch a range of stuff, have a range of friends, and all have skinned knees from playing outside with their friends which seems not to be a trajectory of social outcasts. I will remind my daughter who currently has a shiner on her forehead from trying (and ultimately succeeding) to do a trick on her rip stick that she should be more risk averse. In my experience coaching, the kids with no media limits are either from poor families or are the real dullards of the group.
