No, many kids USE TV. Doesn't mean they NEED TV. But even I consider a phone a necessity for a latchkey kid. I'd never leave a tween at home without a phone, even if they didn't use it everyday. It could come in handy in case of an emergency.

Why am I the only here understand this? It must because we just all live in so different areas and things are different in the mid-west.

Nah, I've lived all over the world and never lived in an area where TV was a necessity. Now, I know that you live nowhere near New York City, but I have heard there is a NYC branch of "Kill Your TV," which is a fairly radical anti-TV group. I'd guess in order to have meetings, there must be at least two or three of them in the NYC area!

So what ill do you believe would befall these children if the TV was taken out of their home?
