“THEIR ONE AND ONLY”
In the past 20 years, the number of single-child families has risen by 40 per cent. The trend is strongest among professional couples and older parents who want to concentrate on their careers. Legal adviser Wendy Drayson, 40, told the Sunday Times: “I knew I wanted to have only one child, and Iwas sterilized 18 months after I had him. I love my son to pieces, but Iwould not say he is the best thing that has ever happened in my life. Ihave my work and other things.”
Jill Pitkeathley, author of a study of only children, says that most of them regret not having brothers and sisters. “As more children grow up in one-child families, I think society will lose some of its ability to communicate,” she said. Ann Laybourn of the Centre for Study of the Child at Glasgow University disagrees. “The worst that you could say about only children is that in childhood they have a tendency to put on weight, because, without brothers and sisters to play
with, they tend not to run about as much.”

breakfast on the first morning, she asked whether she might have abowl of cereal. “Of course”, Previn replied, eagerly reaching for the health-food cereal which his two small sons enjoyed each morning. Pouring Miss Taylor a generous bowlful, he then talked about its nutritional value. She ate in silence. “To be quite honest,” she remarked at last, gazing
into her empty bowl, ”I'm not crazy about it.” At this point, Previn looked again at the grain-filled jar. “I'm not surprised,” he slowly replied. “I've just made you eat alarge dish of hamster food.”

“STANDBY BAN”
Standby power is the use of electricity when adevice (e.g. aTV set, amicrowave oven, a radio) is not active. It is used to provide consumers with functions such as remote control, memory, clock and networking. Some green organisations have started a campaign calling on governments to stop production of electronic goods with standby options because it is awaste of energy. Everybody- from electronics manufacturers and politicians, to consumers and environmentalists
-has an opinion. Here is what our readers think about it.
Reader A
What is the point in focusing our attention on trivial amounts of energy consumption caused by leaving devices on? While they are wasting their energies on these, governments continue to sanction the destruction of rainforests and the air pollution caused by growing economies such as China. Are politicians really this stupid or do they just hope that we are?
DAVIDWALTON, STANLEY, UK
Speaker B
The producers say that the power consumption of televisions has come down from 400W to 30W since the 1970s. But take a look at the TV's in the shops. 300 to 500W plasma screens are becoming the norm, and worst of all there is no
information about energy consumption on labels of TV sets. 85% are labeled, eh? Open your eyes! Why so little labeling? Because industry does not want to inform consumers.
SIMON REYNOLDS, KINGSTON, SURREY, UK
Speaker C
It's all very well to talk about not having standby but how will it work in practise. I assume that someone who is old or disabled would be able to have aTV with stand-by, so how's it going to work-would there be amedical examination before
you are allowed to buy aTV with stand-by?
ALAN HUXFORD, PORTSMOUTH UK
Speaker D
The simple fact is that people LIKE the standby function. They don't want to have to get up and walk across the room to turn things on and off all the time. So if the devices have no standby function people will leave TV's turned on using
more energy.
CHRIS JACOBS, KINVER UK
Speaker E
Let us smile at those thinking that by switching off standby power they have saved the world. Let us ask how much more energy they wasted by leaving their electrical water heater on, for just one minute more than necessary. Isn't it perhaps the right time to start eliminating all the waste of energy from our homes?
ALEX PALATIANOS, PAROS GREECE
Which of the readers says that
7.1 much more energy is wasted at home by other tings that TV sets?
7.2 the producers are not telling us the truth?
7.3 it's easy to make a law but it's not easy t put it to practise?
7.4 much more environment is destroyed by industry than by home waste of energy ?
7.5 buyers cannot find some information on the products in the shop?
7.6 people simply want to have a standby function?
