I think part of that is not exposing them to toys, movies, or TV shows that contradict what you're teaching, and simply reinforce the opposite. I'm far from being a prude, but I won't bring an X-Box (or similar system) into the house until my kids are teenagers, if at all. My 4 1/2 year old LOVES the Hooked on Phonica program he's been working on. He loves the Leap Pad that he has. Why on earth would we give him video games? He would see me working on the computer and showed an interest, so I built a system for the kids, and he and his younger sister(s) no whave Dr. Seuss, reader Rabbit, etc, etc.
Kids are sponges and will soak up and master anything you put in front of them. If the only things you expose them to are innocent and (gasp) educational, then X-Box delimas can be addressed later. By that time kids should have too much homework and too many extra curricular activities to become video game zombies.

building a pc for your kids is the same thing as having an xbox ect.
