Those articles are true. Allowing your children even limited, closely-monitored screen time will instantaneously remove their souls and turn them into hollow-eyed, sociopathic monsters. That is both our goal and the goal of all children's entertainment, however. (Wish us luck!)

That explains some of the demonic noises he's capable of making haha.

I may not have been playing games and such because of the move, but it didn't stop my kids.
The NES was perfect for the kids to play (in the kitchen) while we worked on the house and moved in.

That's so cute!

(...wait until she's six. My gothy little girl is going as a corpse bride with skull face paint and blood dripping from her mouth. Her costume looks great - and it was all her idea! - but it is pretty hard break from last year's adorable "witch princess". :lol: )

EDIT: Here is a creepy joke our was playing on my wife and I last month...

Little H: Hey dad! Guess what?
prfsnl_gmr: What is it, Little H?
Little H: You're going to die today!! :lol:
prfsnl_gmr: That isn't funny, Little H, and you're creeping me out...
Little H: :lol: :lol:

She did that every morning for about five days, and my wife and I had to ban her from doing it again. (Looking back, though, I guess it was pretty funny from her perspective.)
