The shame…..
I’ve tried to make sure the rugrats have a head-start when it comes to computers. #1 son has been playing with my PCs since he was 4 and has had his own PC since he was 8. Herself is inheriting a PC this year also. Pierce likes websites like howstuffworks.com and wikipedia.org but games are his thing, obviously. This isn’t such a bad thing because I’ve been known to indulge in virtual mindless violence from time to time myself.
One of our favourites is Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War. It’s a strategy game set in the distant future. You build and control an army and battle another army controlled by the computer or another player somewhere on the internet. It was fun until last Monday, when his Necron army so totally humiliated my Space Marine one that I gave up and ran away before he could wipe my army out.
