Story from the british press today. http://www.metro.co.uk/news/840709-...red-children-and-let-two-dogs-starve-to-death Long and short, she got addicted to a game after breakup, and spent 22 hours a day playing a game, dogs died and kids ate cold bins from a tin. Ultimate punishment though, banned from a computer for life, think how that must feel, not only going completely cold turkey but watching everyone else using it.
You hear about the same punishment happening to hackers who get caught. I wonder how the government monitors people to keep them from using a computer.
lol! ither way that mother had problems, and i think they had nothing to do with a pc/game. its just the poison she had at hand. i know people who drink themself to death, to use drugs, in this case she over used a pc. i think once she figurs out why she did what she did, i doubt she will need to play 22 hours a day to stop feeling her pain. and you cant ban some one from doing some thing unless you watch them 24/7 you cant stop an alcoholic from drinking, you cant stop an drug addict from using drugs and if some one wants to use a pc they can go and buy a one cash and hide it when social servises comes around! lol, i remeber when i was little and mi parents forbid me from watching TV. you know what i used to get up at 3 am and watch TV. i was addicted to it, not realy! later on, i find out that i realy dont like when people tells me what or what not to do! when i dont understand the reason behind their line of thought.
Whew, thank god her friend didnt invite her to play WoW. Dont need that kind of bad PR. But I got to say by the time I was 13 I knew how to cook and do stuff for myself, no clean spoon just do the dishes. Before that though I would have gone to the neighbors house and fed my dogs
Yea the 13 year olds inability to run the family is a sure sign that she was not as competent a parent as she claims "pre-addicition"
run it no but i could take care of cleaning and feeding the dogs and i was smart enough to leave if things were that bad
I was left alone with my older brother when we were 7 and 8 years old respectively. We knew how to make mac n cheese/eat hot dogs/eat whatever, cook, clean and wash dishes. Both parents worked all day and sometimes dad worked out of town for 5 out of the 7 days... Bad parenting still.
Lars your avatar..is that you with your flash pots?...hope you remember to use your gloves all the time....you heal ok?
They are with fire poi, 3.5' total length in that picture they are about 2.5 since I wrapped them, wicks are hand made 4'x2"x2mm armor grade kevlar with an ibolt, 2 nuts, 2 lock washers, quicklink and heavy chains. I'm using a time delay shot for that is a same direction split time anti spin 3 petal flower but it's a 4 petal alignment, after each pattern of 3 I longarm back to original position, so you get the inner swirl of the antispin flower then the outer circle of the longarm. Don't worry, thanks for the concern but fire really isn't that dangerous if you know what you are doing, I've got a few scar burns but they are all from hot metal, doing wraps around my arms while the metal is too hot is not a good idea, need to pick up some kevlar sleeves for the chains so when I'm doing wraps the metal by the flame doesn't contact me.
Besides, she is kind of too old for the targetted audience of blizzard, more her kids age in the last expansion, and for what I am hearing for the new one.
