This guest post from Walter Horn.
Tuesday is night family night for my family. My son and I go to my parents' house on Tuesday evening to watch our favorite criminal investigation shows, NCIS and NCIS: Los Angeles.
We all gather around the television, turn on direct tv Chicago, and begin our investigation of the latest crime of that night. My dad is a military veteran and loves to watch military shows. My son likes the adventure and of course the girls. I love to compare the criminal theories on television with those that I learned in my criminology classes in graduate school. We get into some very heated debates. My mother sits on the couch and just shakes her head with amusement. I think that this is her motivation for our family television night.
As the night goes on we are all laughing, eating snacks and enjoying our family time.
Unfortunately, this will be our last month to do this because my son will be leaving for college in the fall. But, he has said that family television night is one thing that he will miss while he is away. But come break time we will continue our family television night for a short time and rekindle the connection that we have made all of these years.
