Parent alert: the Walt Disney Company is now offering refunds for all those “Baby Einstein” videos that did not make children into geniuses.

They may have been a great electronic baby sitter, but the unusual refunds appear to be a tacit admission that they did not increase infant intellect.

When my wife told me about this I said, "This can't be true. It has to be an article from the Onion. When she said it was in the New York Times ... I had to read it.

So people actually thought these videos would turn their kids into geniuses? I'm not against the videos but, get real folks.
