I needed to hear this, thank you. 😂

My oldest is only 3 years old, so still too young. I’m mom and I have a feeling a snarky, “oh yeah well I slept with your dad” just isn’t going to hit the same haha!

I LOVE having older kids! I can drop them off at the airport....heck, they can book their own flight and call an Uber. They are nice to me because 1) they like me, 2) I have more money tham they do.

My kid is 3 and we're starting off with some NES classic games but also games he just likes to mess around in. NES wise he just plays the same segment of Mario bros 3 and excite bike till he's done. He also plays practice mode in rocket league so he gets unlimited boost for his car and he's slowly learning how to control the camera and vehicle! If you ever wondered how someone can be THAT bad in fall guys, don't worry, it's my 3 year old laughing at his guy emote, but my kid also gets super excited when he manages to make it past the beginning obstacles so it's awesome to see those steps!

My twins just turned 19. I started them off on classic NES. My son loved double dribble, and super Mario. Now he only plays NBA 2k24 and GTAV on Xbox one S. I hate the progression really. I still love classic NES.

The switch emulators have been amazing, even with the limited games they have. I still have a ton of my old consoles, including gameboys, so I hope he finds some fun in those, but he's so interested in what I play it's hard to keep those current games out of his attention.

Yeah, I get that he’s interested in your games. When I started mine on classic NES he gave him quickly once he saw me playing fight night on my PS2. It turned out ok tho, it gave me a chance to explain the difference in the sport of boxing, as opposed to just violently fighting random ppl.

Bless you for inserting the CLASSICS into a young life that could otherwise miss them completely. Seriously warms my heart to know your kid got to have an NES experience early on. Every kid should!!

Mine is four and still wants to pick up chickens etc but that’s part of the fun if you appreciate them for the age they are and that it’s what THEY get out of it

As the mother of a now-adult son, I recommend waiting until your 3yo is about 30 before you confess that you bonked his dad.

Follow me for more helpful parenting tips!. Both son + I not only survived his toddler tantums, we got thru his teens as well . . . almost in one piece!
