Yaaawn
Listen up troll:-)... Th guy asked about subject A and a ton of people went left with regards as to whether "A" was something to be done at all.
Geez... get a life... get kids of your own... then you can talk... just cause you were a kid once(?) doesn't mean you diddly about parenting.
You strike me as one of those "near-do-wells" that vote against school vouchers on the principle that government run schools should just work. Leaving us parents to deal with the mess of you arm-chair-parents:-)
And in your latest response you go and disparege this parents value system... inferring the kid has not earned what he is getting.
Like a previous poster stated... you don't know jack about this family... and more to the point... isn't this "slashdot"?? where do a bunch of geeks get off discussing this kids social life?
If the parent wanted advice on raising his kid he could have visted DRLaura.com or focusonthefamily.om:-)
But... the bored lonely wanna-be-parents just can't resist the urge to meddle.
-- If the village is full of idiots, I will raise my kid in the void.
My point... stay out of parenting issue unless you are asked... trust me.. you won't be.
Greets...
I can't believe the "Blizzard Haters" here on these boards... you bunch-o-opensource-blind-3rd-eye-freaks:-)
As stated in a previous post... Blizzard games have given me and hundreds of thousands of players more bang for their buck then just about any other gaming franchise on the face of the planet.
Half-life and it's mod community are the only ones that I would say have given more.
Proof? I just point you to your the hundreds of thousands of gamers that bought starcraft umpteen months ago for $49 and still play it 10+ hours per week. The overwhelming majority of games out there don't have that staying power.
So... get off your "personal" problems with Blizzard protecting what they created... they are right in doing so... welcome to the real world...
