Netflix Account Settings

I discovered something grand yesterday. And it has to do with Netflix. Specifically, the Netflix account settings.

I know what you’re thinking…there’s no way in hell anything having to do with Netflix could provide the material for any type of grand discovery. Trust me, if you have kids, you will want to know this.

My kids have been clocking in a little too much Netflix lately. I’ve been know to indulge this guilty pleasure myself, but I don’t have tests and homework to do. Thank goodness. I’ve asked them nicely to “put the electronics away,” and to “turn it off when they go to bed,” but I know they’ve been secretly watching. Because I can tell what episode they’re on when I sign in to watch something myself. And for people who aren’t watching any shows, somehow, they’ve been moving along quite nicely on each of the series they watch.

I'm like a little kid in a candy shop.

But that all stops now. I changed the password, and logged them out. Apparently, there’s a setting you can go to on your Netflix account, that allows you to sign out of ALL DEVICES. I stumbled on this by accident, changed the password, and then signed out of everything. No more Grey’s Anatomy for Zoe. So sorry about One Tree Hill, Avi. And they’ll never be able to guess the password, because I can barely remember it myself.

Here’s the fun part. They don’t know I’ve done this yet. It will take up to eight hours for this little plan of mine to kick in. But I’m so proud. I’m not going to say anything to them about this. I’m going to wait and see how long it takes them to come to me. And I’m guessing, it won’t take very long.

I’m like a little kid in a candy shop! This is just too much fun. Parenting at it finest, while getting to play an innocent trick on my kids.

Find meaning each day,
