It also depends, a lot, on the connectivity.

Cloud gaming really needs a wired connection. It might work well on a flawless wireless connection (well tuned, minimal clients, no co-channel interference)… but those are exceedingly rare.

I said great-uncles and great-aunts.

Uncles and Aunts tend to mind their own business. They see the kids parents as peers (because they are) and generally respect their decisions.

It probably has more to do with being old and not seeing your baby nibling as someone who can handle being a parent themselves, now. They wrongly assume age=wisdom and totally forget that they have 0 parenting experience to look back to.

And they come out of the word work for it, too. They’re retired boomers on that good DINK money. They got wads of money and nothing but time. So now they want to be involved all the time.

What really dislike about child-free adults…is when they become child-free great-aunts and great-uncles.

They want to spoil the kids as if they are grandparents while also having no idea what kids actually need or want, or what is healthy for them.

And then they ignore the kids parents because they are still the parents aunt/uncle and to them, they are just a kid.

My oldest wanted to learn guitar. So did I. We are taking lessons together.

My youngest loves video games. Highlight of his week is when I can sit down and play with him.

Both my kids love reading and arts and crafts, which my wife also enjoys much more than I do.

Why can’t you and your kids have overlapping interests? When you’re raising the kids, it’s normal for them to be curious about the things you enjoy. Kids hobbies and interests end up overlapping or reflecting their parents more often than the other way round.

My oldest also likes Minecraft. My youngest loves soccer. Neither of us really enjoy either of these things. But we do also enjoy seeing our kids developing interests and personalities of their own. If that means we have to spend an hour a week going to Pee-wee soccer (and, meanwhile, hanging out with other parent friends), so be it.

Nah you’re missing the bigger picture. Sure, millions of people will die, but thousands of orphan children will have the opportunity to be forced to become sex slaves for Trump. That’s way more profitable than giving away free medicine.
