Everything in Moderation
That is tough for sure Kevin, and I am sure it is even more difficult having a 12 year old. I did forget to mention that all of my sons friends now know that he is not allowed to play them, and for the most part, they have all been really great. They have found alternative things to do. It may be tougher as they get older, and it is still a struggle, so I can understand the perdicament you are in. And as you know, you have to make the best choice for your family. For myself, if I know that something isn't good for my child, I am not going to allow it to happen, no matter how unfair it is. Please don't take that the wrong way, that is just my choice and opinion about the war games. But ughhhhh, I can feel for you. Maybe it is weighing so heavily on your heart, because you need to make a change of some sort. I wish I could just give you the answer. But I can't- probably because there is no right and wrong answer across the board. Sit down and talk about all your concerns with your son and Claire, maybe that will help- just get some feedback going- both ways..
