do you let your baby watch tv?

Question

I've always been very cautious about letting my six month old watch television. She's watched maybe an hour since she's been born. Her older brother likes to watch tv after school etc and since she's become mobile it's becoming increasingly hard to keep her away from the TV lol. Do you let your baby watch tv? If so how much? I feel so guilty that she's watching about 20 mins a day now😩

Answer

I have something on at all times (I can't stand no background noise) usually Mickey mouse or curious George. He has toys to play with sometimes he just sits and watches. He is 5 months I also have a 2 year old

Answer

I allow it, it's sometimes the only way I can wash dishes, do laundry etc. as long as it has some sort of educational or emotional message I'm fine with it. Like Daniel Tiger and Wally Kazaam, and Bubble Guppies

Answer

My baby loves Mickey Mouse club house, Mickey saves santa 😀

Answer

I know. I feel like I can't watch any of my tv shows I tape either bc I don't like the idea of him watching 👀 he's a lurker

Answer

My daughter watches tv more than she should. I'm really upset about it. Except she's so happy. She watches cartoons she watches her uncle play video games and gets very excited. She also watched history shows.

Answer

She watches the baby channel in the morning if she's awake while I get ready to go to work. I don't think there's a way to avoid it. When I cook I sit her in the living room with my hubby while he watches tv, but she's usually playing with her toys

Answer

We watch a sitcom at dinner and nights we sit on the couch directly in front of the tv he usually twists around to watch it. That's only one night per week, the rest we sit at the table and he can't see from his angle. Other than that we only watch tv after he's in bed. If we're busy he does a pretty good job of entertaining himself so far. I'm not necessarily opposed to him watching tv, just isn't something that's happened yet.

Answer

As long as its stimulating to her then its no issue

Answer

My daughter watches one episode of seseme street every morning ... i don't like her watching tv but at least it's something educational. She is 5 months
