Cruise bans TV and computer games (contactmusic.com) Updated: 2006-05-19 13:40
TOM CRUISE is strict when it comes to raising his two eldest children -
barring them from watching TV and playing computer games. The star's adopted
children with former wife Nicole Kidman- Isabella, 13, and Connor, 11 - are also
expected to help out around the house.
The kids, who are home-schooled
by tutors from the Church of Scientology, are also encouraged to spend time
outdoors. He explains, "The kids have no computer games. And absolutely no
television. None.
"They can listen to music and read just about any book
they want, and they can choose the movies they want to see on the weekends,
within reason. "They also have chores, because I want them to know that it's
important to work. I had a job when I was eight years old delivering newspapers.
"So for me, it's like: You want a clean room? Then you've got to clean your
room. No one is going to do it for you."
