Agree (well, I would wouldn't I?).

Kind of on-topic, Sweary junior has a mate who's mum and dad have been split up for a while. He lives with his mum, and domestic life seems to consist of TV dinners, DVDs, MSN and games consoles.

He stays with his dad at the weekends, whose philosophy is 'I've got sod all money with which to lavish material gifts, so instead we'll go camping / fishing / play football' etc.

I'd much rather have a parent that could be arsed to actually spend time with me and do stuff than plonk me in front of a screen and then fuck off to the pub...
