I finally got Corwin to play in a computer game with me. He’s always been reluctant to do multi-player for reasons he won’t specify, but I suspect that it’s his strong fear of losing. However, once we played for a bit he warmed up to it. We had gone through about half a game when Mom announced supper. This brought Corwin almost to tears because we hadn’t finished the game. We did play a bit more later in the evening, but then it was time for Corwin to go to sleep. It did seem to be a psychological break through for Corwin, as he played a bit with a computer opponent while I was helping Mom and that’s something he’s never done before. Perhaps I destroyed a bit of childhood innocence, but that’s what parents are for.
