computers in a big way and they've also discovered that they can waste a
huge amount of time sitting in front of them. So we've come to an
agreement that certain things will be limited; web access (via squid),
TV (via mythtv) and email will only work during certain times of day.
That way they *know* they don't work, and while they can still get email
from friends they can't reply.
So far it's working - they'd rather go to the park and play than sit in
front of a dead box. :-)
