TV Is Not a Babysitter

TV has long been thought to have damaging effects on developing minds. Through cases studies and her own life long experience the author, a highly respected psychologist, postulates that developmental disorders, such as Autism could have a root cause in the sensory overload caused by excessive stimulation, such as auditory stimulation and overeating, but most importantly through over exposure to TV. The author proposes a real-world dialogue about autism treatment and the benefits gained by planned cutting off and reduction of these impairing stimulations.
