Honestly, we'd just rather keep our bedroom as our special "sanctuary" and when there's no TV there we can do just that. I think we'll be doing what you do with the portable DVD player and preapproved movies. You are really on top of things! I LOVE that! Your hubby is blessed to have a gem like you. Thanks for the visit. So we’re not the only ones!

We're the same. We have no TV in our bedroom, our girls can only take the mini one with the DVD player attached to their room with permission and only for the purpose of privately watching a family-friendly movie we've approved (they're 13 and 9), and my son (15) just got one in his room last year, but he's so used to not having one and not watching a lot, it may not get turned on more than 2-3 times a month, with the exception of watching a VCR tape with the girls. Yes, we still have an operable VCR and boxes of tapes in the garage, and we still use it. Our family TV in the living room is ancient, but still shows such a clear picture that we can't part with it just because. We don't watch enough TV to care. We'll be one of the families purchasing one of those converter boxes before next year, just to get pictures on our dinosaur! Here Here!!! We’re the same.
