I hate the thought of my children being glued to a screen. Children only play on computers all day because their parents let them.
— Mariella Frostrup
We're naturally programmed to endure a muddle of emotions as we leave childhood behind.
Saturday and Sunday mornings are the only time the children are allowed to turn on the television.
Only those with skin as thick as elephant hide can hope to sail through their teens unscathed by self-doubt and bouts of depression.
Fridays are always movie night at our flat in Kensington, West London.
In my child's-eye view, whenever I was exposed to pain, it meant that my mother had let me down.
