Are your kids spending a little too much time with their faces glued to a screen? Think twice before you do what this dad did.

A father in France was so frustrated that his kids were spending so much time online that he set up a multi-wave band jammer to temporarily cut off the internet connection at his house. Unfortunately, this illegal jammer was so powerful that it made sure the whole town took a break from the internet. Even though his intentions were good his fellow townspeople were not happy. He faces up to six months in prison.

What are some of the ways you keep your kids from spending too much time on the web? Do you offer incentives of any kind?
