Yes playing outside with other children, reading a book with Pappa and
Mummy or visiting grandparents, etc. are all more worthwhile activities
for small children.  In fact they do us a great service by getting us off
our computers.

But I'd rather my daughter played with computers than watched TV.  She is
not even 2 but already has memorised many advertising jingles.  I know we
live in a consumer society but this is disgusting.
