No Einstein in Your Crib? Get a Refund Quote: Parent alert: the Walt Disney Company is now offering refunds for all those “Baby Einstein” videos that did not make children into geniuses. They may have been a great electronic baby sitter, but the unusual refunds appear to be a tacit admission that they did not increase infant intellect. “We see it as an acknowledgment by the leading baby video company that baby videos are not educational, and we hope other baby media companies will follow suit by offering refunds,” said Susan Linn, director of Campaign for a Commercial-Free Childhood, which has been pushing the issue for years. http://www.nytimes.com/2009/10/24/ed...24baby.html?em __________________ KC Forum Rules The Thanks Button Using Our Search Feature Click Here For Sponsorship Info

Baby Einstein I'm curious why so many people think that Baby Einstein should be the teacher of our children. Isn't that a parent's job? And why would we expect babies and toddlers to sit and watch television when they should be interacting with the people around them to learn? Seems more like abdicating parental responsibilities for the sake of convenience. Just my opinion, though.
