I had never considered having a TV room in my house, but after last night, I like it! We were at our church, which has just moved into a new building. And in this new building is a new ‘nursing mothers’ room. The old nursing mothers room was a room with a 1-way window looking out into the sanctuary and regular padded seats. Regardless of the privacy the one-way window provided, it’s still a little weird to get into a nursing state with several hundred people sitting on the other side of the glass and walking by, looking at themselves in the ‘mirror’ of the window.
But the new room is a fairly small room with 2 rocking recliner-gliders and a good sized wall-mounted flat screen TV with the service piped in there. It’s a very comfortable room.
It’s so comfortable that I no longer dread nursing during the service. And it made me consider how comfortable and cozy a TV room would be in a house where television isn’t the main gathering place. It would eliminate people walking in front of the screen or being bothered by other noise in the house. And likewise, it would eliminate the television bothering other people in the house.
