No ipods, no video games, no cell phones, no teen angst. The kids work hard at school.

What a thing for a conservative to say. I do not draw the conclusion that my life is better than the life of someone in a small village. They have family, extended family and community. We have TV. We also have cell phones, commutes in aggravating traffic and a maximum of two hours of "quality time" with our loved ones each weekday. They have fresh air and daily exercise together. Meals together. I eat fast food at my desk.
I'm guessing they smile more than we do.
