My husband said he was so grateful he is to belong to a family where this is close family ties. He remembered the time when the whole family would be watching in one black and white TV in their living room and used to be eating together in one big dining table. They just had and then they still could manage keeping only two channels airing during that time, with no remote control to use. During this time, every time you wanted to change channel, you had to stand up and walk near the TV to revolve the channel knob. This is so unlike today. Aside from the living room almost every corner and room in the house seems to have TV with lots of channels. Each member wanted different programs or show and prefers to watch in separate rooms. You can’t even exchange talk to your kids in the dining table because some of them have their bose headphones from musicians friend in their ears.
