Hey Trace of Angels, I can't believe this, how could anyone stay away from such an addiction for 7 long years. Kudos to you for that. I agree with everyone that TV is such a waste of time and when the kids start getting a habit of it they should be stopped then and there so that it does not become an addiction. I also love watching TV but many a days I get up in the morning and pledge that since there is too much of work today I won't watch TV today- to complete my tasks, and tomorrow- to take rest and nap.
