Notice though that parental technological solutions to problems will
over time result in the increased technological ability of children
who will figure out a way to get around the "solution."

Of course, I think this is good.  But of course, it's not my phone bill ;-).

If the kids are seen up on the roof, assume they are cutting though the
insulation to "tap" into the line.
