"In March, for instance, Accurso posted a video of two children watching a Ms. Rachel video amid rubble. The caption read: “My friends Celine and Silia in what used to be their home in Gaza. They deserve to live in a warm, safe home again.”

On Monday, Accurso posted to her Instagram account photos of a meeting she said she had last week with Rahaf, a 3-year-old girl from Gaza who lost her legs in an airstrike, and the child’s mother. The meeting was arranged through the Palestine Children’s Relief Fund."

          Anything less than actual human or world interaction is less effective for child development. If we look at Coco melon, it is actively detrimental.

                I think in small doses, exposing children to the similar sins and messages in the show can be beneficial, yes. Why do you think coco melon is the only thing in kids YouTube? You seem to be singing your entire argument on this one show. There’s better shows available out there, AND far worse.

            Having your house reduced to rubble is also pretty bad for early childhood development. Maybe let’s focus on the bigger issues here.

        It’s like buying an expensive car and not doing any maintenance on it and then getting pissed off when it kills a classroom full of kids.
