Are certain TV shows harmful for your child?

In modern parenting, TV shows have played a huge role in our children’s lives. We know amount of screen-time matters, but what about the TYPES of shows are children are watching (especially our young toddlers)? I welcome Dr. Cara Goodwin (@parentingtranslator) who is a clinical psychologist, mom, and who translates the research on child development and parenting in an easy to understand way for parents to chat all about the types of shows our kids watch.  We discuss: Are certain popular shows like Cocomelon and Ms. Rachel for Littles okay for kids? Based on the research, what are young children learning from television?  Are watching sports with children okay?  How can a parent balance the research we do (and don’t have) to make screen time decisions for their children Find Dr. Cara Goodwin on Instagram @parentingtranslator or visit her website parentingtranslator.org For more watch Dr. Mona's "Is Screen Time Harmful?" video on YouTube.
