Do you have one in your bedroom?Do you always watch a little bit just before going to sleep?Or do you think that its just a bad habit that you dont want to start.

hello peanut , yes we do have a t.v in our bedroom and we have a bad habit of leaveing it on all night,somehow the noise just makes me fall asleep. now this past week we got struck by lightening and it blew my bedroom tv so now im seeing the difference of not having my tv to fall asleep to i find it to quietI guess I just go tused to the sound being there when I woke up. I joke with my husband and tell him to turn on the tv I want to watch hgtv so he lays in bed and trys to sound like a host on a decorating show to lull me to sleep lol.

Perhaps you should get a nature sound machine. You know, you can pick the sound of waterfall or waves crashing on the shore or birds singing. They automatically switch off after an hour.

This is one thing im scared about,the tv being burnt out and catching fire in the bedroom,yet i still have to have it there.I too need the sounds.I like to put it on the station "Music Max"its relaxing to fall asleep to.Yes you should try the relaxing sounds machine.Im sure you would like it.

I think having a TV in Bedroom is not so good.But If there is some space etc constraint,it can be kept in Bedroom.I feel Drawing Room is a better place for the TV.

I have a t.v. in my bedroom. I like it. I do watch t.v. before going to bed and sometimes I like to curl up in bed and watch a good movie.

Yup, we do. But we only use it for when my hubby or I would like to watch a movie and the kids are using the one in the living room. I don't recommend having a TV in kids' bedrooms though.

No i dont have a tv in my bedroom. I think having a tv in your bedroom is a bad habit because you may tend to stay in your room and may not do other activities.

Yes, we do have a T.V. in our bedroom since most often we do stay in our bedroom aside from T.V., our computer is also in the bedroom..so here we can comfortable lye down while watching the T.V.

I don't have a television in the bedroom, I generally find it to be a distraction. I like to read in the evenings, often curled up in bed.

Im not patient enough to read books.I always have to do something.Yes it is a distraction,because it becomes a habit and you end up sleeping too late at night.

Television - Fall asleep watching it.
I think it's a bad habit but I do it! There isn't one in my bedroom YET so every night I fall asleep on my couch watching the tv. I go so far as to set the sleep timer.

Im only ALLOWED to watch it there on the weekends,it keeps my hubby up.He gets up for work at 3:30am to go work in the woods.Im out of luck for the weekdays though.We do fall asleep to it too,only to be awaken by a ringing noise and black screen.

Sometime even second hand ones are quite good.We bought one just to play games on for about 25 bucks and it works good.Ask santa for one for x-mas.(parents or friends)
