Dear Readers,

I would be interested to get your take on something. It’s a quote from an article in last month’s Best Life magazine. It’s by Paul Scott and it’s called “Monsters Inc.” 

“With the convergence of technology that connects televisions, cell phones, and the web, kid-brand gurus have developed an unprecedented array of Trojan-horse methods to enter your kid’s head and capture his mind. What’s at stake is more than a few dollars, it’s the internal emotional adventure of childhood itself.”

This quote has been troubling me since I first read it. I would be very interested to hear your reactions. Is he right? Wrong? Crazy?

I invite you all to write a few words.

Josh
