I have a 4 year old and she gets about an hour a week of TV on Saturdays while we clean. Shes a super busy kid and doesnt ever think about screen time until the weekend so its not witholding anything its just our schedule.

So heres the thing: I noticed a distinct pattern of bratty behavior right after she watches TV (usually Daniel tiger or sesame street) and accepted it as something to do with screen time, this went on for a year or so.

Then I borrowed some 80s sesame Street dvds from the library and I slip those in instead of contemporary TV for her hour of watching here and there. No bratty behavior. None. Happy and uplifted every time. I go back and forth to test the theory and there is a 100% correlation between her behavior after watching new sesame street (less effort, more digital animation, repetitive content to save money, characters like "smarty the smartphone") and 80s sesame Street (physical comedy, live music interludes, analog animation, focus on personal interactions.)

I am super blown away by the stark difference in her behavior after watching the same show produced 40 years apart. It's now been 6 months and the pattern is not a fluke its 100% real. Any insight? What is it about modern shows that make our kids act like brats? And why do I not hear about this phenomenon more?

98 v6 with 50k on aisin clutch kit. Had a full rig today with 4 people and gear and tried to pass someone on a hkll and the clutch slipped. Seems like the pressure plate should handle that, any insight? Doesn't happen under normal everyday driving conditions.

Kicked the chain and now the cranks dont give any power. The throttle works and I disconnected the wiring harnesses and reconnected woth no luck. Any advice? Motor has 200 miles on it and has worked well- ride in 300w assist, was being ridden by my 70 year old father in mode 1 at the time of chain loss so it wasnt being abused.
