Is kids using electronic devices uniformly considered a bad thing?
I personally don't think it is, with moderation. My wife thinks the opposite however, she doesn't want any electronics Nintendo etc for our kids yet. I let my kids watch TV, play on the iPad, or watch youtube videos for a certain amount of time and only if they get their chores done.
I do not use those electronics however as a baby sitter. For example they do not watch TV all day but they can watch a cartoon or 2 before bed time if they were behaving all day.
We have a white board in the Kitchen area and we are giving them red and black points for good and bad behavior. If they act up then there's no TV for that day.
I did realize that they are getting a little too addicted to the iPad so I put that away from them for a few weeks.
Gotta play the games with kids
It is very easy to go down the wrong path with them.
