Or we could divide into two teams and "collaborate" to get even more bang for our buck! One team would write up each study and then the other team would write the critiques identifying all the flaws.

If so, I started a small list of other research questions we might want to answer. Fill in the blank: Does _____ affect parents' interactions with their children? * watching television * vacuuming (and myriad other household chores) * enrolling in a course * taking a nap * sending a child off to first grade * having them take the bus to school Fell free to add others. Perhaps we could perform the relevant studies and publish our results and conclusions in a book. On second thought, it probably would need to be a multi-volume series of books.
