So anti-Clamatic, but in a good way

Right after I clicked publish on the last post Hubby and Frankie came home from a shopping trip. Frankie showed me the new computer game Hubby bought him.

Hubby said, "I told him about WoW. He's fine."

"Really?"

"Yeah. I did tell him we would refund him $10 of the monthly subscription he paid."

"Okay."

And that's it.

This new game will probably frustrate him, but then again everything frustrates him. We haven't escaped that.

What I tend to forget is that sometimes with kids suggesting that you might do something can be much more anxiety-producing than doing it.

Oh...and Hubby told him that he knew he was still making decisions about his school, but if he cooperated with them for six months he would consider giving him another chance with WoW.
