Yes playing outside with other children, reading a book with Pappa and Mummy or visiting grandparents, etc. are all more worthwhile activities for small children. In fact they do us a great service by getting us off our computers. But I'd rather my daughter played with computers than watched TV. She is not even 2 but already has memorised many advertising jingles. I know we live in a consumer society but this is disgusting. -- Jaldhar H.
