Can you please try adn help me find that study about tv in the background. Anytime my Dad is around he has it on and I notice that she does exactly that. It really bothers me...but we live in their house yada yada...
There are other tvs he could watch ( I cant always take her away since I am cooking etc..)I am hoping a decent study might help me out.

There are also articles that show that direct TV viewing alters attention span.
