From NYTIMES: 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.

Parenting Shocker
Apparently letting your newborns and toddlers watch the Baby Einstein videos does not make them smarter (from NY Times here ): 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.

Baby Einstein Videos: Not A Ticket To Harvard
We’ve taken a lot of heat for not embracing baby videos. When the American Academy of Pediatrics came out with their recommendation against videos for kids under the age of 2– we were delighted (and quite frankly it made it possible for us to continue excluding these videos from our television segments despite a lot of pressure).

Toddlers Biting – Stop The Biting Without Biting Back
Surely you have heard the idea that biting back a child that bites is the fastest way to get them to stop. It was told to me so often that I got ill when my child was biting other kids at day care.

I was certain there was a better way. Toddler Biting – It could be a symptom of something else going on with your child. Unfortunatel...View the entire post by clicking here

Maya (digvijay Singh, 2001)
A pre-teen stands in front of a locked door, from behind which blood-curdling screams emerge; he is pounding on the door, shouting, “Let me in!” A grown-up assures him that the one screaming is not at all being hurt, and he is physically punished for the fuss he is making. Thus begins Maya , a superlative Hindi film in which this initial scene is either the boy’s nightmarish premonition or a real event to which the film will return in due course.
