Hang on ” toddler, Tv , and violence all in the same question . If a toddler is able to watch violence on tv the parents should be removed from its life . Toddlers will enjoy the sounds and colours from kids shows , disadvantage too much tv and toddler will always want tv on . Also Tv can help you get a few odd things done around the house , his/her favourite show can distract from knowing you have left the room or if the child is rather clingy to one parent could distract from seeing the other parent leave .
