No screen-time for kids under 5

What are your thoughts on fully restricting screen-time for kids under the age of 5? After the kid is 5, we can gradually introduce screen time, say 1 hr day which can increase over time. For now, I've tried replacing screen time with story time and have had favorable results. Anyone else tried something similar?

Is there a shame associated with not pursuing your passion professionally?

Doing what you love professionally is a luxury very few have. What I fail to understand is instant shame we experience if we're not doing what we love full-time. As much as I love music, it doesn't pay my bills. Why can't we then, in the light of this situation, work on a gig that temporarily keeps our boat afloat while we pursue music by the side?

What are your thoughts on doing an unrelated day job and music gigs by the side?

We had a house fire in December, and it had to be torn down to the foundation. My wife and I like to go by after work to see the progress a couple times a week. We noticed today that some of the joists are warped and twisted. How much of a problem will this be for us if the contractor continues with the warped boards?
