Family Politics Shift to the Keyboard
By AMY GOLDWASSER
IN a promotional mailing, EarthLink, the Internet service provider, called it
"the Harris family problem": "Lisa wants to use the phone. Bobby wants to
download MP3's. Mom and Dad are going crazy."
The Harrises are fictional. The problem is not. In many homes, there are more
computer and Internet users than computers and connections. On weekday
nights, when soccer practice is over and dinner is done, it's homework time,
and things can get pretty tense.
