hehe....hmmmm that's a tricky question. No, I don't think so. I'd prefer him to be productive even it means he has to be away for longer periods.
PS: I don't know if I really answered your question or not.
But he must waste time in other ways? Being a gamer, and married to a gamer and having brother's who are gamers, it really doesn't stop you being productive unless you let it. Like anything else in life.
Re: ok I admit that...

It works for you because you and your husband have similar views regarding gaming. Because I have no interest in gaming it'd be worse for me to be married to a gamer.
As Decent mentioned his concern regarding his son, I think I'd be really irritated if my kids' father was addicted to games. I know we can argue about being on gupshup and playing games is the same but IMO games are more anti-social than discussion forums.
Re: ok I admit that...
Never gonna happen but I wish I could introduce you to the world of gaming you are probably not aware of. Miles away from the killing stuff or sports games you see advertised all the time. It might not change your mind but it will at least show you what can capture the imagination. It's no different from books or movies. Just like all you mostly just see (imo) crappy pure entertainment hollywood movies advertised all around you all the time, you get the same with gaming.
Angry birds isn't gaming :p
Re: ok I admit that...
^for entertainment purposes it's okay to play.....I have played Myst and I really liked it but that was when I didn't have any kids. I actually really enjoyed it.
Re: ok I admit that...
I dont remember any game addiction per se in my case but I remember playing Prince of Persia a lot back in my school days.
lol i remember playing that on my 64mb video card! Oh man now that i compare that with PS3 i cant believe i spent 5 hours playing that each day!

Re: ok I admit that...
I actually love my husband for one reason, he's not a gamer.
i hope that is not the only reason :)
Re: ok I admit that…
You’re the father, it’s your job to keep your son away from bad habits. I’m a gamer myself. Friends and family leave their kids in my care every now and then. Though I myself might play for a couple of hours in a row, when it comes to the kids, I limit their playtime.
Re: ok I admit that…
i just found out…my mum loves this game too:hayaa:
Re: ok I admit that…
My mom doesn’t actually play anything, but she likes watching some of the games that we play.
