[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I had let my charges watch fifteen minutes of Cocomelon on T.V. so I could wash their lunch dishes/cups as well as wipe down the table and benches after a very messy lunch. When the father returned home, he yelled at me for letting his kids watch “that garbage.” He likened it to me actually giving them crack!!!?? I have watched many episodes of this program and it is whimsical, fun as well as educational to a hilt. I admire how they named the children in them after the Watts kids who were murdered in CO in late ‘18……[/quote] Wow. Just wow. I have read online that “experts” are claiming that letting your toddler watch Cocomelon is the same as letting them smoke crack……??!! I find this laughable. When my now grown children were younger, there was talk of letting my kids watch Teletubbies would likely make them gay due to the purple Teletubbie named Tinky Winky. They claimed that Tinky Winky was a bad role model for young children since he was purple (a gay color?!), had a triangle shape on his head (apparently a “gay” symbol??!) and carried a purse even though he was a boy. This is laughable to even imagine someone saying all of this today, right? Then when my kids were teens and Harry Potter books became must-reads, I heard experts complaining that by allowing children to read these books would expose them to witchcraft, etc. Anytime something blows up in popularity there is always someone ready to bring it down. Poor Cocomelon. In 25+years, this will all be considered a stupid fallacy. :)[/quote]
