A lot of people say that too much television is bad for children (or, indeed, anyone), but a courageous few believe that television can actually help children - television programs can educate, display the wider world, show what it would be like to interact with other human beings if that ever comes up, and, of course, keep them quiet when they're being annoying.
So we bravely subscribe to the idea that television can be a good thing for our kids (and also Foxtel).
However, just today my son did something for the third time and referred to it as the "third episode". Also, when he wants to repeat something that he has enjoyed like, say, being thrown dangerously high in the air, he has been known to ask us to "rewind that".
But still.
Courage.
