Do you allow your 5 months baby to watch tv? My friend don't allow their baby to watch tv. Even their parents at home are not allow to watch too. But my baby like it when my family member watch tv. I am okay with it, but worried will it be bad for baby. My friend reason for not allowing their baby to watch is because if the baby watch tv they will not study.

I wouldn’t but I don’t think it’s wrong to do so. Everyone has their own parenting methods and nobody deserves to be judged. Whatever that you’re comfortable with!

I wouldn’t recommend tv watching for lo. Best to have play activities and reading to nurture creativity and imagination. This will be better for The Eye health too

I allow.. pretty much depending how long u allow ur LO to watch. I dont think is bad bad kind.. compare hp vs tv i would opt for tv cz i hav more control over it

do what you think is best for your kid is my advice. some say ok, some will say no, but ultimately it's your decision on how you wanna raise your kid.

studies show that exposing young children to TV/tablets etc actually lower their attention span. Wouldn’t want to risk it if i were you.

Its been proven that screen time is not good for young children. If you can, reduce screen time to the recommended limit of 30min a day.

I think depends on individual. my girl on and off watch. but of course not whole day. if not later they get addicted .

As advised by the pd, that no TV or phone till 2yo to prevent ADHD. So I don't allow my 1yo to use any of that.

yes. I let my boy watch. it's ok to watch maybe u can let yr baby watch 15-20min. after that rest a while do other things.

First one no... Second one watches occasionally Baby TV cos the first one watches, gotta share the TV from time to time...
