Thanks for your post Kellie, very informative. I would certainly want to know the reasons behind using a TV and be told in advance that one is used as part of the programme. Your reasons sound quite valid and with prior notice I would not have a problem. From what I gather at my friends centre is that often a movie is on, I suppose though it is not a problem as she seems OK with it. I'm still a little bit surprised by it, but at least now I know it is common practice.
