Joining the Turn It Off Challenge (by Elizabeth)

Mom Unplugged (The Blogger Formerly Known as Mom of 3) challenges all of us to “Turn It Off” for one week. http://unplugyourkids.blogspot.com/2007/04/tv-turn-off-week-challenge.html.

In our house the TV is already black though I must admit that this is not difficult. After all, football season is over, and my children watch very little TV anyway. But they do enjoy computer games, so I will ask them to participate in Turn Off the Screen Week (though I am certain I will have to bribe them in the end).

But MU goes one step further. She proposes to limit her own Internet usage to one hour a day. For this I applaud her! I hope to join her in this endeavor, but I must admit that I have an obsession. My obsession is searching the web for other mothers’ stories, especially mothers with challenging children.

So before I begin MU’s challenge or suggest that you do the same, I offer some of my favorite Mom Blogs and Websites:
