You nailed it, Quicksilver. Since this thread is about GH, I'll try to get a bit more on topic. In GH 3, you're allowed to enter cheat codes. My son knows how to google, and when I caught him looking up cheats, I said, don't even think about it, or the game is going in the garbage.

It's hard to stuff the cat back in once it's out of the bag, but there has to be limits. Unfortunately, this generation of kids have no sense of limits. I don't blame the kids, I blame the parents. To a good degree, I'm among them. Divorce is hard enough under any condition, but when both parents aren't on the same page as far as limitations, it's even tougher- on the kids. I realize I've taken this thread way off base, but I hope every parent and young kid out there reading this takes a good hard look at video gaming, tv watching, txt messaging they or their kids are doing. What happened to actually working for something?

Thanks for letting me vent, all.
