Above posts confirming my opinion that after about age 9, it does NO GOOD for parents to "ban" anything--your kids will figure out a way around it [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]. I was forbidden to pierce my ears until age 16 (not making this up!). I did it anyway, and wore my (long) hair taped to my earlobes when I was at home. I've gone to the library to use their computers when our connection wasn't available--and I WOULD walk it if I had to (about 2.5 miles), so I guess that's how far I'd go nowadays. Back then--everything that was mentioned, and more!
