Definately know what you're saying. Always made my boys do homework right away, made sure they watched shows that were appropriate, they played sports, etc. Now they both are graduated from engineering schools and have good jobs at civil engineering firms.
Lady I've been with for 5 years, kids are glued to video games,or on myspace constantly. kids are older, one going to high school, two out already. Can't spell lazy, expect to be waited on.
Really think the old way was better.
