Do you let your children watch tv to fall asleep? Why or why not? Dd is 2 and has been having a hard time falling asleep. My mother used to let us watch tv when we were in our rooms and when we decided we didn't want to fall asleep with it anymore we didn't. I'm thinking about letting my dd do this. If i do she will not watch ANY TV during the day and she will only be watching educational shows. what are your thoughts?

My son watches it at night. People say its wrong but whatever. I watched it growing up and I'm fine. My son can also go without it -

No. My children are allowed to read books when they are falling asleep, but they do not and will not have televisions in their rooms.
