Parental Advice As Heard On The Radio

Recently, on some long drive I was listening to a local all news station when they offered a solution to parents on setting boundaries. Since we're all friends here I'll pass on the nugget of wisdom. At dinner decide how many chapters of a story you will read at bedtime and when bedtime comes stick to that limit. Advise the child that you had both made the decision at dinner if they ask you to read an additional chapter. Do parents even read their children bedtime stories anymore? Every kid I know has their own multi-media center inside their bedroom, I'm not sure asking for an extra chapter of a story is a parents biggest problem in 2010. It might actually be figuring out what camping gear they should take to the Apple store or Best Buy so they can await the arrival of the latest gadget for their child.
