When Bossy’s kids were little they were attached to a Sesame Street I.V. drip.

I grew up in front of the television. I.T.O.F. (I turned out fine)

Like everything, tv is fine in moderation. Obviously I wouldn’t plop my son in front of it for the entire day, but no tv. That’s cruel!

I couldn’t agree more! It’s because of the tv that my son can point to North America on a map, tell me about the Great Wall of China and the Statue of Liberty!

Let me tell you, if those pioneer women had tv in their day, they’d be using it to their full advantage!

My television has been my parenting partner. Which is perhaps why I am not winning any mommy of the year awards…

At what point does the “watching mommy on the potty” stop being a lesson and start being kind of weird?

In a similiar vein, I’m sick of all the child experts who denounce Elmo, Sesame Street and Baby Einstein b/c they’re apparently ruining our kids’ attention spans. Puhlease! PBSKids is my saviour!
