how did it come to this?
before begin a mum I always had some
set rules about the things that I will and will not do with my KIDS.
not letting my son watch TV was one
of the reservation I had, and always looked down upon moms who let the idiot
box baby sit their tots.
but as they say never be too quick
to judge , I soon was one of THOSE moms.

But when I discovered CBeebies , I
was in mommy haven!
the channel had apt content
for my two yr old, with no nonsense ads bombarding my child's mind with
things he didn’t need , or no over aliens invasion and destroying the
world or no 5-year-old boy who is constantly doing and saying inappropriate
things. I was happy that I could safely keep my toddler occupied with contend
that would only nurture his mind , while finish my chores. And meal time was
always a breeze with the Teletubbies.
And the content that’s available for
children on the other channels is scary,
I don’t know what happened to the
good old cartoon network , I was a 90's kid so I remember seeing the yogi bear,
atom ant and Scooby on it . But the stuff they run these days is enough
to give any parent nightmares. Plus the contend and ad ratio is also at par.
it’s a sad time for a mom who is
striving to give the best to the child with limited options out there.
Heres
hoping they start airing CBeebies , till then I guess I will have to stick to
the DVD collection to wash down that meal without a world war!
don't judge me, I have a fussy eater
at hand , and I will break all hell loses if I have to , if that can get my son
to finish his meal,
a desperate desperate mom!
