Well, I blame myself for not expecting this to happen. It really is in the norm of how things proceed in our home.
My husband comes home for lunch yesterday after reading my blog.
Husband: "Does this mean I get to buy a new game today?"
Me: "Hi, honey. Glad you're home. Is that what you got from my blog?"
Husband: "Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 comes out soon. So I'm getting it, right?"
Me: "I never said that. I was pointing out a fact of how our mall expeditions go. I don't recall saying you get a game."
There is moment of pause as I am sure he realizes this point in truth.
Husband: "Well, the first one is really cheap. I can get that one."
So as you see, the discussion of video games must imply that he is going to get spoiled once again. Reason is a foreign concept to him while the words "video games" are being tossed about apparently so haphazardly.
Point to parents: Do not spoil your children, for this is what happens.
Oh, and he accused me of making him sound like a "nerd" because of his love for video games.
......
I merely posted about conversations that have taken place; more or less in that manner.
Make of that what you will.
