My 5yo has discovered minecraft. Do I want to listen to 12 straight minutes of wolf variants? No I do not. But I listen politely because he’s sharing something that’s important to him and that bond is precious to me. Vance is shit and my heart hurts for this little who’s learning that’s how people who love you talk to you
Lol, and just wait until they hit the YouTube videos about different characteristics.
Of course as parents we listen to their hobby, even if not interesting to us. However, they also need to learn that they cannot always be the Centre of attention, or they are in for a rude awakening when they aren’t.
I think Vance did it clumsily but its fine to moderate when you spend quality time with your kids, without being an ass, like he was. Being an ass is the least of his crimes though.
