Maybe I'm being naive but why do parents put up with this? Barney? Teletubies? I can't imagine having this stuff on in my home.

Because it shuts their kids up.

My son is at that age where he want my attention to help him do things ALL THE TIME. But if I need a solid half hour of work time he gets Mickey Mouse. I usually limit it to 3 eps per day though.

Yeah I get that it quiets them but I'd rather play re-runs of Duck Tales or put on Sesame Street.

:thumbsup:


Has to be the classic sesame street. The new stuff is almost all Elmo acting like an idiot and whom can't speak properly, with some CGI animations and a hip ghetto talking puppet thrown in.

He watches Duck Tales, Tale Spin, and Chip & Dale's Rescue Rangers from time to time. Not the greatest selection from our streaming sources.

I haven't watched Sesame Street in over 30 years but I will find old classics if needed. None of this vegetarian Cookie Monster shit.

My best friends 1.5 year old is addicted to Disney. It is all their fault they just buy her Disney shit and watch it all the time. I told him quite a few times that he needs to pick something else because Disney is going to rape your wallet and you are currently making it so it can happen. His response? It keeps her quiet and happy....sigh

I get that you need a break and just need to get the kid to be quiet and occupied for a few, but do it with something that isn't engineered to financially rape you for the foreseeable future.

On the plus side, you can find out quickly if your child suffers from seizures.

the OP videos looks too retarded. Why all the colorful stuff? Mickey mouse or disney stuff don't have all that cheap bs and they're for kids too.
