Ds was playing with another kid his age at the pool and the kid asked him what electronics he has and ds said "I don't have any electronics". The kid said, "That sucks! I have an Xbox, PSP, etc."
Well, we do have an Xbox just sitting in it's box, but are probably going to get rid of it because dh has finally outgrown video games! All it took was him not having time to play them!
The last thing I want is for dh and ds to both get addicted to them. I just look at all the "adults" today living at home with their parents, not working a steady job, and playing video games all day (dh's brother comes to mind). I know that doesn't happen to everyone, but I just don't see the need to get that stuff for ds. I hope he won't resent us for it.
Plus, we currently don't even have a TV! Yep, we're prehistoric!
At least ds has been making lots of friends at the pool. He has his little greeting down by now. It's cute. "Hi, my name is Christian. I'm 7, almost 8, in the third grade and I'm homeschooled. How about you?"
