Our children were born into an electronic generation and our home, with its 3 separate computers, reflects that. (While we did not purchase a computer for the kids, they did acquire my old one when I needed to upgrade.) Yet, despite not being allowed to use my computer (or, perhaps, just for that very reason), they are very attracted to it. So I have set up a screen saver with a password to keep them out.
Yesterday, Milo was sitting at my computer and asked me to tell him my password.
"But if I tell you, then it won't be a secret password anymore."
So he put his fingers in his ears and said, "Okay, I'm not listening. Now tell me your password."
Happy sweeping!
