My children will be forever trivia disadvantaged, but too bad. They are not allowed to watch tv except for the occasional animal planet shows.

They read books for entertainment, and their grades reflect it.

Amen! When I was growing up in the 60's and 70's our next door neighbors never had a TV. The Dad, a decorated WWII Marine who was wounded on Iwo Jima as a teenager, examined the box and decided his family would be better off without it. That's leadership!

Your kids' contemporaries will probably end up working for them. Congrats!
