I'll have to say, I'm pretty bummed Big Bang Theory isn't streamed on Netflix or elsewhere to any real extent. Although it is definitely more adult-themed, my almost 13-year-old loves the show and identifies with so much of what goes on. He bought Season 1 on DVD, but we hardly have devices now that will play DVD.

As to electronic babysitting, it can be a gift for our high energy, driven kids - both for us and them. I even need electronically babysat from time to time. smile
