Oh my, haven't we been debating this endlessly wrt TV? I don't know that anything substantial has come out of it other than that parents who want to "park" their toddlers will find a way to do so.
Other parents will use YouTube or TV or anything else as a source of inspiration, engagement and communication in addition to many other things they do with their kids.
And where parents are not interested in their kids and just park them in front of a screen, I'm comforted by the fact that computer screens, as opposed to the TV screens, provide access to a lot more than passive entertainment.
