I missed this one last week! I definitely have a love/hate relationship with video games. Some of my fondest memories are of my brother and I playing Donkey Kong Country for hours. Heck, Iā€™m old enough that I had an Atari! But Iā€™ve also seen friends and loved ones get so caught up in their online life that they neglect their real world relationships.

Like all things moderation is key. Thatā€™s what we try for with our kids. Left to his own devices our 13 year old would only come out of his room for food. We do sometimes have to force him to put the controller down and interact with the living lol.

What I will never understand is the whole ā€œwatching dudes on YouTube play video gamesā€ ???? I donā€™t get it?? But our 7 year old would do it for hours
