Deleting TV from every day life is an excellent idea. I can get all the news I want right from my computer. Unfortunately, instead of watching TV, I do spend a great deal of time at the computer, which can be just as bad.
B and I have become pretty good at limiting hours we spend at the computer, and we only watch TV when we sit down to watch a movie together (maybe a few times a month) or for ESPN to catch a playoff game or two (I love hockey!).
I wish more parents would do this with their children and increase time spent actually doing things. It's so easy to let movies or TV or video games babysit children, but many parents don't realize what that teaches children or how it can harm their health until it's too late.
