Car DVD Player As Companion While Travelling

I came back from Cameron Highlands yesterday after a night stay over there. It was mainly planned for the kids on this short term school holidays. My in-laws were joining us too as we had a steamboat gathering up there. It was kind of different along the journey if compared to last time. The kids enjoyed themselves so much on their father's new car DVD player. It was an economical system with only a receiver, a remote control and a small screen which cost less than a thousand altogether. This is a trendy style among the youngsters. I am just worried that this habit may hurt the kids' eyes.

My mother-in-law disagreed with the idea of having such lifestyle in a car! She keeps warning his dearest son not to watch DVD while driving. Hubby may not be able to pay full attention while driving and this is quite dangerous too. I feel the same too. I would not object if the system comes with GPS device. That is more useful for a man without direction sense like him. Too bad, his current car DVD player doesn't contain one.

Hubby is going to be addicted in it already. He told me that he was looking for some quality car speakers with good sound surround too. Hope he won't spend too much on that. We have to save up more for our new house. Anyway, car DVD player plays a role as good companion when hubby travels alone outstations, so that he won't fall asleep when driving.
