[quote=Anonymous]I don’t think the reason that parents do not want their kids watching screens when the kids are in the care of their Nannie’s is due to any damage that excessive TV watching can cause to the child. The reason is that parents who are paying a person to care for their kids want that person to be actively engaged with their kids the entire time that they are “on the clock” for lack of a better term. If the nanny is passively sitting on the sofa watching TV even for only twenty minutes, than that is twenty minutes that she could be emptying the dishwasher, wiping off the counters or sweeping the kitchen floor. Parents do not want to pay someone for simply watching television while they are supposed to be working.[/quote]
