[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 214951, member: 3419"] :knockedout: I thought I saw a light on, and heard a noise about 1/2 hr ago. Turns out difficult child had taken my husband's laptop and was playing a video game. Then he didn't want to give it back to me, because if I unplugged it, the battery wouldn't be charged for husband. I told him that husband could charge it in the a.m. and it would be ready for him in the afternoon. difficult child finally gave up. I have no idea if he's asleep now but at least his light is out. He is SO obsessed with-video games! husband thought this particular game would be good because it is slow and intricate and you have to build villages and create a defense, etc. but frankly, anything on a computer is addictive to difficult child. That's the part that husband doesn't get. Yes, difficult child doesn't get angry with-this game, but he does get addicted. He didn't even eat dinner tonight ... just sat and stared at his food and stole glances at the laptop 10 ft away. :sad-very: So I'm checking my email, and icing my neck. I have a feeling Sunday is going to be a long day ... [/QUOTE]
