We've put MTV BET and the Comedy Channel on parental block since the first day our first child came home (7 years). Our friends look at us like we're from Mars when we tell them. We're seriously thinking about expanding it. Perhaps we could block every channel, thereby having to explicitly OK each show our children view.

Good for you, Warren. Believe me, you haven't been missing anything worthwhile.

Since the 1980's, popular music has been like a sewer line being emptied into our homes. When I was young, we listened to music with lyrics about love, beauty and social issues. Mostly, it's just filth now.

Finally, someone gets it. I might not agree with your views, but at least you understand how to use the technology at your disposal rather than insist everyone else give something up. Hat's off to you.
