Question by I DONT CARE: she’s getting on my last nerve with this baby einstein crap!?!?
my daughter is now 1.& as a baby shower gift i was given a set of einstein videos and cds that were passed down to me from my cousin. Well, lately my sister, who lives in houston, but comes frequently to dallas to visit, and she really cares and luvs her neice, as my daughter is the first gbaby. Well, like i said, lately she’s been driving me so crazy telling me, ‘ u need to have her watch baby einstein,” and, did she watch baby einstein today?” and we need to put a tv in her room so that she can have no choice but to watch it!
and honestly its taking so much from me for me not to tell her, to shut the heck up and go have a kid of her own if baby einstein is so d@mn important! heck, my daughter doesnt watch tv, and when it is rarely on she walks up to it, because of course they are drawn to the colors or whatever, and i have to constantly get up and pull her back, bc i dont want her to screw up her vision! thats what my concern is, not whether or not she watches d@mn baby einstein vi
videos, i mean, sure when she was just a baby i would play them for her, and i dont know what attention she payed to them, and occasionaly i play the cd in the car or whatever, but they are really making it seem as though im depriving my daughter from a freaken days worth of food, is it that important to play baby einstein for her?!? and so my cousin goes ‘ i cant believe she dont play them for her daughter, those videos are just going to waste! well its not like im totally against it. i just dont have the time,
is it so bad? is it really that big of a deal to have her watch the videos! i know they mean well, but hey look at all the geniuses we have without and before those d@mn videos, those videos are not going to make my daughter who she is. shyt, its jsut really taking all of me to not go off!!
i dont really know if this is a question, but i just had to let off some freaken steam!
my sister tries so hard to have a say in what i do for my daughter sometimes it just really bugs m

was that the same baby einstein videos that were in storage in the basement when it sadly flooded?
or the ones that were left in a sunny position and are sadly no longer useable?
they would be if they had been in my house

tell her to watch the three stooges
I think you need to honestly tell your sister how you feel about your child watching the Baby Einstein videos. Maybe you could say something like, ” I really don’t think my child should be spending a lot of time watching television at her age, so I am saving them for when she is a little older.”
Good Luck!!
Just what you said she is YOUR DAUGHTER, your sister can input all she wants but you don’t have to listen to any of it if you choose not to. I would ask her to stop bringing it up and tell her how you feel because I think it may just continue if you do not. She is probably yes just being concerned but that is not a concern that she should really have. My daughter just turned 14 months a week ago and yes she has watched the baby Einstein before when she was younger and no she does not watch it that often now, because of the same reasons, She is with a sitter all day so when I get home I want to interact with her and have fun with her. Then of course comes dinner, bath and bed, but TOO much TV is never good so why should we require them to watch it if we can give them the same level if not better of knowledge just by interacting with them in person. Do what you feel best for your daughter and she will be fine. Good Luck.
Tell me about it!!! My brother n law was the same way! And of course my own mother! She keeps comparing my kids to other children! Very annoying! I know they mean well but dude.. too much for me to deal with too:) I know exactly how u feel! I have 5 children, n my youngest just turned three yesterday, and they have been bugging me about those educational videos since he was a baby. Kids learn at their own pace, I don’t feel it’s right to force my child to learn or get into things that he eventually will learn it down the road… I just basically ignore them:) Well, hope this helps. I had to vent too:)
they’re great, but I agree with you! Your child doesn’t need to watch them all day every day. Tell your sis to shut up!
