Yeah I saw that in a news letter or something. I think it is a good step by blizzard. I know Channing's mother could use that for him.

I think you are right about that.

Still, having this kinda control option is very responsible on Blizzard's part. For that I give them kudos.

You don't want ten ear olds to turn into us junkies afterall! :P

Yeah, my mother would not know how to use it... but slowly parents are becoming computer savy. By the time I have kids, I will be using such things.
