Yeah, I sure didn’t see the Comcast ad anywhere else! Missed the Restoration Hardware catalog, though. You’ll have to write about it! Thanks for writing here, Marianne.

Ranks right up there with that horrid Restoration Hardware catalog. Thanks for bringing attention to it.

Thanks for writing, Maria. I bet this ad blows up in Comcast’s face. Good luck with your boys. I’m always relieved that with two girls now in their twenties, we escaped the worst of tech’s invasion of childhood.

This is an issue in our household, especially since we have 2 boys! Screen time is such an issue and this ad is ridiculous!!

Thanks, Eloise. Always a special pleasure to hear from you–and to use an archaic word!

You really have a way with words–love this one, especially the Fie.

Watching someone else’s creation will mean that these kids are missing out on making their own in their imagination.
