fleaConversation this morning:
Casper: How old do I have to be to get a Tendo DS?
me: Hmm, I don't know. What do you know about the Nintendo DS?
Casper: It has a little board that you hold and you can play video games and draw on it with a stick. If I was sick one day I could play with it and not be bored.
me: Does anyone you know have one?
Casper: No, none of my friends.
me: Maybe it's for kids who are a little bit older.
Casper: How old do I have to be in our house rules to get one?
me: Well, I don't know much about the Nintendo DS, so I'll need to get some more information about it to decide.
The house rules thing makes me laugh - we have one house rule about age, which is she can get her ears pierced at age 10 if she wants to.
I hate video games, though. I have childhood trauma around sexism, video games, and being ignored. So we'll have to see where we go with this.
