Stone Soup by Jan Eliot for December 18, 2009

Ah yes, the three o’clock chimes at every office. No need for clocks.

Never supply secret to your success to the security guard who happens to be your mother.

If only Holly would use this kind of ingenuity with her schoolwork.

My kids aren’t permitted to access the internet without one of us at home with them..

There’s more interest in books in my house than the computer. Guess we’re Luddites.

ALWAYS check the fine print, Mom!

I can’t believe she fell for that.

Okay commentors do most of you have computers in the kids bedrooms or in the living room? Us we have our computer when we lived in a different house in the living room or kids when they where young didn’t like it but at a glance we could monitor what they did. Until our daughter got on message board and every Tom, Drift and Hurry had to call or write trying to access her. We told her you don’t know who you are talking to. I got rid of a few. Hey Val you better watch your daughter and monitor her more.

I’m in high school, and my parents don’t want the internet on when they’re not home. I finally got a facebook this summer. We have two computers, and they’re downstairs. None of us kids have a computer in our room. I’m on a message board, but there’s only certain people that get on, no weirdos.
