My Own Little Piece of Reality..
Advertisements [?]
So I just asked my little ones, while they were playing "Borderlands™"...

I asked them why they were being so cruel and deliberately blowing off their opponent's appendages after they had already killed them.

The girl, 7, said; "Because it's funny!"

I said; "Would that be funny in real life? Would you think it was just as fun?"

My very own Dolly said, "No... that wouldn't be fun."

"Why not?", I asked.

"Because this is a game, it's not real."

"So, if someone attacked you, then what would it be like?"

The Boy, age 9, said; "Well, then it would just go back to being a video game for her."
