It has concerned me for a long time that children are babysat by the TV because:- it's easier than interacting/time constraints on parents/habit/ignorance etc etc. As I have a grandson of my own now who is two and a half and is watching some TV, though not a lot (he loves Night Time Garden) I discussed the issue with my daughter who, not blowing anyone's trumpet here, is an intelligent woman, and she suggested I watch :-

If anyone was in any doubt about the effect the TV has on limiting the brain's proper development in a child when the TV is unsupervised and allowed to be watched ad infinitum this will clear up any doubt at all!
The government changed women's pension age and called it progress. Did anyone actually ask you?
