Take the Challenge
I heard about this website today and loved it.  I think it is an amazing idea with amazing results.  I think every school should do this and much more every home.  It is a 10 day challenge to turn off all tv, movies, video games, and such.  The results are astounding.  They found it to help all of the following;
• Reduction in student aggression
• Decrease in obesity and weight gain
• Increase in academic achievement
My husband grew up with no TV.  They watched it when their parents were gone every once in a while but for the most part they didn't have media in their home.  I have seen the amazing effects of it and want that so badly for my family.
