Being online makes it easier for them to maintain friendships and the like, so they're more well-adjusted.M.J.

He is 10 and LOVES the games. He has a Playstation and paid for his own PSP. We keep the same rules for all media-- they need some real activity every day (my daughter's diversion of choice is texting or Facebook), there is only a half hour of such things on school nights, and then only if homework is done... and I think he's okay. He's my reader, so I don't think they harm him at all.<br /><br />Glad to be reaffirmed though, that even if he immersed himself deeply, he could come out the other side.Hart Johnsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17599570189253229318noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4450078601022572253.post-46297898733256841362009-10-03T10:47:12.664+01:002009-10-03T10:47:12.664+01:00I feel your pain, brother.I feel your pain, brother.M.J.
