My son unfortunately is addicted to the electronic games so if anyone can suggest a way of UN-welding him from it I would be gratedul. Anyhoo if he ends up as intelligent as Olly Neutron-Bomb I think I might rope myself.
I think Ricky Ponting’s assumptions after his last effort require some explaining, perhaps he’s been dating Olly N-B

Daniel – I must confess we have a Wii, and my daughter maybe plays it once a fortnight. The wii sports baseball/tennis have improved her co-ordination. But then again her co-ordination would probably improve if I threw the ball to her daily…

During the process of buying a new television, many of the manufacturers were throwing in game consoles to sweeten the deal. My other half suggested that getting a console might be a good thing because we could then buy some educational games for our kids. On the surface, this is fine in theory, and I’m sure that there might be some edcuational benefit in these kids games. But I pointed out that they key benefit was to the manufacturers in that by getting kids into playing video games as early as possible increases the chance that the kid will turn into a lifelong video game player. I’d rather keep our kids away from the Playstations and Wiis for as long as possible, and get them making mudcakes in the garden instead.
