Whatever Works

I'm sure all of you parents out there will agree with me when I say that, most of the time, I try to be an involved parent. None of us want our kids growing up with more TV time than one-on-one time with Mommy & Daddy.

In my defense, their shirtlessness was due to the dinner menu involving spaghetti, so that wasn't just negligence on my part. In a pinch, sesamestreet.org is a lifesaver - and the gate keeps them from pushing all the buttons on the computer.
Sometimes, you've got to go with whatever works. Can I get an amen?
