Baby Einstein Refund: Because It Turns Out TV Rots Your Brain
24 October 2009, 4:58 PM. By Cindy Casares
Are you one of those annoying parent people? Did you buy a Baby Einstein video for your infant thinking it was going to make them into a smarty pants? Ha! Not only don’t those videos work, they actually make your baby dumber and now Disney, owners of the Baby Einstein sham, are having to give full refunds to all the dumb parents of those even dumber babies.
In August of 2007, the Journal of Pediatrics released a study that found that exposure to “baby DVDs/videos” — such as Baby Einstein and Brainy Baby is strongly associated with lower scores on a standard language development test.
Wait. Watching TV rots your brain? We thought that was how Carl Sagan thought up exobiology. Who could have known that paying $15.95 for a DVD of a 50¢ hand puppet on a blank stage was not going to make your baby into John Fucking Nash? Perhaps that’s why these kids are scoring low on their exams. Their gene pools are not the deepest.
Here are the details on how to get the refund.

Who would have thought listening to a sock puppet that makes barfy noises for hours on end would have a negative effect on your baby’s cabesa?

Aww, a troll, how adorable.
Perhaps the Einstein that the creators of Baby Einstein had in mind when developing the series was Izzy Einstein, the infamous police officer best known for shutting down speakeasies during the prohibition era.
