What do you all use?

I posted a thread a little while ago about TV and DVD's (it kind of turned into a conversation about the content on TV)

I've heard of direct Tv, dish network, v-chip, someone mentioned tivo kidzone and alot just seemed to use good old-fashioned parental previewing and monitoring.

I'm just curious what you all use? or what your prefered method is?

Parental monitoring here, but keep in mind that by that we mean ACTIVE parental monitoring. So many people say the "monitor" their kids' TV watching, but have no idea what their kids watch.

We use Parental monitoring as a primary way of dealing with it, but we also use tivo and kidzone to help us out (like I posted on your other thread).

no no no, its not a survey for any particular reason.. just curiousity

I had a another post on the board, sparked this question for me.

I just wanted to know what other parents do.

to answer your question.
I'm currently just a stay at home mom, sort of recently, I've been thinking about homeschooling though
