Simple; turn OFF the d@maned TV and get your kids into reading.
TV today is not what it was 20-30 years ago.

I remember growing up my parents getting bent out of shape while I was up very late reading into the night. You are so right, today's television has replaced books. We are lucky if today's kids show some mild interest in reading. It is easier for them reaching for the remote or the Nintendo DS from one's pocket than actually opening up a book.
