For me it gave me a chance to change my career.
Since I can chat with my friends and relatives all around the world , my phone bill got cut drastically.
My kids need less help with their homework.
I know a lot more about a lot more things now as I can read about anything , any time on any topic.
*Pros= * I have more info at my fingertips which enables me to open my eyes and broaden my horizon.
I can waste quality time playing at ' addicting game' and end up ordering out for dinner.
It keeps me from spending Mr weasel pay check at the mall which he greatly appreciates.
Like Mirch, my kids have access to homework help and do not have to wait for their turn for the book in the library.
Cons= It has made me a 'couch potato'. I find excuses to open my laptop instead of doing something physical. thus the weight gain. guess one cant have one's cake and eat it too.
It keeps me from spending Mr weasel pay check at the mall which leaves me with very out of fashion and over used wardrobe.
Here is a perfect solution for you.
