| "I've got a bone to pick with the creators of Jump Start World. Ever since their software arrived on Friday, I haven't been able to wrestle my computer back from my five-year-old for more than five minutes at a time. I've been subscribing to an online lesson service for some time, and it's like pulling teeth every day to make the child sit down and complete his lessons. However, after making the mistake of installing the software on my computer instead of his, I actually had to make the child quit the game to go to bed. Saturday morning, as soon as his little eyes fluttered open, our conversation went something like this:
"Is that new computer game my homework now?"
"I guess so."
"Yay! I like that homework! I'm going to get started on it right now. I'll turn the sound down so it won't wake Mark up."
