I even found tapes of The Six Wifes of Henry VIII there). No hookup, so no commercials. It took him years to find out about candy. Of course, now that he has found out, he is ever vigilant. But I doubt he even knows what a vending machine is for. We only have TV in our home for my son’s videos, and the occasional movie video I rent (or buy on the cheap from the local AIDS thrift store.

The commercials and subliminals of television are pretty difficult to resist even for adults. Shine on; your child is growing up right. Parker is a fortunate young man.
