CESSY, France -- A wonderful thing has happened. During a recent house renovation, one of our satellite dishes for receiving most non-English European and Middle Eastern networks broke. We lost nearly 2,000 channels, including Cartoon Network and a few other brainless children’s stations. We decided not to replace it. More recently, the remote for our free-to-air satellite (Astra2D) for the BBC, ITV and other British channels also broke. We suddenly realized that the children, 9 and 15, were really not that interested in watching TV. They preferred to read, explore the internet, take in the occasional DVD, or do things outdoors. We’re now wondering whether we can even be bothered to buy a new sat box. Do we really need TV in our lives? And, well, what about a good book or even, dare one say it, a newspaper?
