For that matter, if a kid isn't into TV, that can be a great thing... Give them a variety of toys to play with, imagine, etc... Get a "big box" of random Legos (not the nearly single-use model based stuff you usually see). Draw, play with clay, go out and play outside even.

It really kind of feels like this mom wants her kid to be distracted by the box, with an occasional check-in vs. actually watching or otherwise engaging.

As to feelings, and how to handle them, good old Mr. Rogers did that over half a century ago, and I only wish the show were more broadly available today.
