Default Strange way kids think.

Collected my 9 year old grandson from the school bus and we went to the skateboard park for the afternoon. One of the other things we enjoy doing together is playing the Wii. On the way back from the park he says "We need another controller for the Wii" Driving along I'm thinking I didn't know we had broken one.

That evening his mum and dad come for dinner and announce they are expecting. Grandson pipes up "Told you we need another Wii controller"

WHAT? HE WAS JUST ENJOYING A MOMENT TO SHARE. Healthcare - skateboarding - ok I get it. Do you have issues with healthcare bills you would like to share on another thread.

Ok then I expect to see you post with you skateboarding pic for us to see very soon, as your new fitness plan to stay young and fit. I don't wanna hear any complaints once you fall off and break your neck or any complaints about medical bills.

I think it's pretty heartwarming that grandson wants to get prepared to share/play with the new sibling.

Also think it's nice that you play wii with your grandson, grandpa. (Can't wait till I have grandchildren. I might even consider playing wii with them. )
