[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This has nothing to do with being cool. Have you ever played grow a garden? You’re literally planting apple trees. Parents pretending this issue is about coolness, because they’re lazy.[/quote] Who's pretending it's about coolness? Surely not the 9yo boys- they just want to play with their friends and not feel left out. I really hate how video games are so woven into the social fabric of boys relationships, but I don't know how to avoid it either.[/quote] We occasionally take our kids to Dave and Busters and other arcades but in general video games are not a big thing among our kids and their friends. It just isn't something they focus much on. [/quote]
