Carrie Underwood Warns About Kids Watching Too Much TV, Notices ‘Attitude Change’ in Sons


As a mother of two young boys in the digital age, country star Carrie Underwood knows she can’t completely avoid technology.

The singer, married to former NHL player Mike Fisher, warns that children are deeply affected by screen time, as she has noticed a change in her own children’s behavior when they consume a lot of television .

“It’s such a battle, isn’t it? Even television… I notice that if they watch too much television, it’s like they change their attitude. And I’m like, ” Why are you in a bad mood? What are we doing ? Oh…” she said while appearing on “Today.”

Admitting that she herself has learned a lot from TV and movies, Underwood said that managing the amount of content her children ingested was “a struggle.” And it’s not just television that worries him, but also cell phones.

Wanting to keep her children away from phones “as long as possible,” Underwood said the school her boys attend in Nashville was proactive.

“There was a whole grassroots initiative within their school and a group of parents got together and talked about how we can keep our kids away from technology,” she revealed.

“Especially like social media and that sort of thing, as long as possible.”

Underwood rarely shares personal photographs of her boys on her own social media platforms.

Her sons, Isaiah, 7, and Jacob, 3, began to realize their mother’s celebrity status.

“They saw me on stage and I feel like the first time my oldest, especially, started having ideas was when his friends were saying something and it was like, ‘Oh ‘Is that different? I didn’t know that was the case’. It’s not normal,” she explained.

“So they would come home and say, ‘They said they saw you on TV.'”
