[QUOTE="PonyGirl, post: 63675, member: 187"] Well I will just put in the lone vote saying I personally did not have a big objection to this. Few years ago, easy child was big into the on-line gaming thing. He played EverQuest with some buddies of his, and after midnight they would 3-way call each other and chat as they played. I was okay with it because I knew the other kids to be also PCs, mine had no committments for the next day, and he was home safe & sound. More than once, he fell asleep in the middle of a conversation! He had his own phone line, so it didn't interfere. Compared to the horrors I went thru with difficult child, I was pleased as punch that easy child was spending his time this way. [img]:whew:[/img] I didn't make a big deal out of it, and it died a natural death. He laughs about it now, how much brain energy was 'wasted' on that game. I believe it helped to teach him something about limits for himself, and too much of a good thing. He got tired of it on his own (no pun intended) and let it go without a battle from me. Peace [/QUOTE]
