I recommend completely walking away from MR for a month. After that, come back and have a gander but don't spend more than a few minutes a day then. Seriously.

The other one, though, seems to be down for the count. I find that sad and scary for young people to risk their futures when they've got this terrific once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that college is for most people. So if I see a student here poking around, I'd prefer to scare them away than ruin them by welcoming them into our chronophageous insanity.

Wow,
It is nice to see someone taking an interest in my study habits, I appreciate the advice but my internet connection is so slow that while I am uploading my class work I hop over to MR to pass the time until it is done, I understand where you are coming from with your children's study habits, But at my age the only distractions I have are the wants and needs of my three kids. As for Risking my Future I think I am over halfway thru mine. I am going back to School to change professions after I retire from this one in a couple Years, It never hurts to diversify ones skill set.
But Seriously VR I am Flattered that you were thinking of my well being. Tell your kids stay in school don't do drugs
