Bah Humbug!

My FAMILY didnt get a TV until I was 10 years old.

I didnt have one in my room until I was 23!

(Of course this was in the middle Paleolithic - TVs were much rarer then))

Lol! Mick. I'm old enough to remember not being allowed to READ in bed after a certain time. Mind you, those ogham sticks were very uncomfortable if you laid on them...

Neither children and there were six of them nor grandchildren, ages 2 years to 12 have had TVs in their bedrooms, neither do we have a TV in our bedroom........

No one seems to have sufferd, and we enjoyed having the family with us.

Now none of the children watch a great deal of TV unless it is Sports or documentary.....They all love their music and all read a great deal also enjoy cinema.

Eldest grandson does only recently have a computer in his room BUt with full parental control.


He is into making his own animated films!
