"Stop playing on the computer and come down for dinner! NOW!"

It's a frequent line screamed by a mother to her child every time a household war is waged. Mom wants to have attention, child wants World of Warcraft. Mom says "Stop it!", child screams "ORLY?". It's true that MMORPGs are addicting and it's been the cause of a lot of domestic squabbles.

Mothers of WoW-playing kids will be happy with the parental controls that the upcoming Mac OS X Leopard has to offer. Apple has revealed that parents can specify time restrictions when their kids can play games like WoW. This feature also has a remote control setup, which means parents can set the restrictions from anywhere.

Of course, while moms would sleep better at night knowing that their children finished their homework, the kids got it bad like whoa.

"W0rk, w0rk, w0rk! Mom is teh win!!!11"
