Apparently the 4yr old plays Call-of-Duty :-S
Sk came today and the oldest asked if we'd make it a rule that the 4yr old not play with toy guns etc. SO inquired as to why and apparently the little guy while at the play centre at the mall was pretending to shoot the other kids and tell them "You're Dead." (this was while he was with his BM). At the supper table the 4yr old proudly tells us "I play Call-Of-Duty at moms" and his brother pipes up saying "you're not allowed to play it anymore." one of my kids naturally asks "Why" and the older SK tells us again about the mall incident with BM. I will admit I am shocked she'd let a 4yr old play that game and not surprised with its influence on the little guy. We don't allow those kinds of games to be played even by the older boys.... since we also believe in equality we cant tell the little one he can't play with toy guns if his brothers are playing with them so the "no guns" rule now applies to all of them (they aren't happy).... we're always telling the older ones that the behaviours the 4yr does that they don't like he learned from watching them do the same thing.
