[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I get it, OP.  We were adamant about no video games until my 2nd grade boy said he felt like an outcast.  We started allowing Minecraft and only on weekends with the express warning that if he ever didn’t want to play outside or read in favor of video games that the privilege would be taken away.  It also limited his other screen time.

I wish they video games didn’t exist.  But they do.  Such a fricking waste of time. [/quote]

Np. So tell me everything you do is productive every single moment of the day?  I hate people with your attitude.   You don't waych tv, movies go to shows?

Video games are fun and with family and friends it definitely is not a waste of time.

Children’s brains are not like adult brains.  To compare a child’s activities to an adults is patently ridiculous.  [/quote]

Sometimes it is nice to have fun and play video games with your kids.  You don't have to work your brain 24-7.  You can have fun and build memories.[/quote]
