My parents never subscribed to cable, and it took me a while to figure out what it was. First I thought my mother was just mean becuase she whouldn't let me watch cable like my grandmother did. Once I figured out that we didn't get the channels, I thought it was something special that you had to live in the city to get (since I lived in the country and all my friends in town had cable). I had to be six or seven before I figured out you had to pay to get more than a couple of channels.
