That's pretty funny. Other than behavioral issues, that parent has no idea what he's talking about. He obviously has very little knowledge of computer terms and technology... especially when he was talking about Linux.
 
Being a "model" parent, and if he is concerned about his child abusing the net, he should read about content control, security settings in NT (and should be using NT), and the technology in general. Also, maybe he should realize that his lack of discipline towards his kids, and his willingness to drop thousands of dollars on them for a "toy" has contributed to their aloofness and change of personality. Perhaps he should reconsider his no-spank policy.
 
Sorry... that article ticked me off. Perfect case of a parent having problems with his kids, and blaming other people for it. What an idiot. Also, when people make a sad attempt at portraying themselves as an expert on something they obviously know nothing about... that also really irritates me.
 
Oh well.

I can't believe this guy is serious! It's scary to think that this ding dong is out there. I didn't read the comments, but I'm sure they are enlightening.

Well, if you check out the site it seems to favor satirical overtones in articles, so I would say that it was a joke.

Definately a joke.

Unfortunately, I'm sure there are some people in the world who think like this...I'm just surprised that no-one in the US has called for the banning of pretzels after George Dubya's little "incident"...

I heard that those pretzels were making him thristy.....
 
Anyhow, I reckon they must be made from a 40/60 mix of Arabic/Palestinian wheat and the salt comes from Iraq.
 
- I am joking.
