Under no circumstances do you have to hand it to them etc but fr sometimes you need the 7 year old to shut up about Pikachu
unlimited 7 year olds talking about pikachu on the first world
Pokémon go to your room
Once listened to my nephew talk about some Mario game for a hour straight.
My son woke me up at 7 today to tell me he unlocked bowsers castle
congrats to him
I'm proud ngl we just beat it together
damn good job
Pass on our congratulations then
I bet he felt real good about it
It was very funny when his younger brother tried chiming into the screed and was immediately shushed because he still had much to say.
in my experience if you let the 7-year-old infodump about Pikachu for as long as they want at least once, you will be immediately become their favorite uncle and possibly favorite person
the percentage of adults that treat children like people is sadly very low
There’s lots of healthy and affirming ways to get a 7 year old to shut up about Pikachu. Redirection is just a skill that parents need to practice. And apparently Vance has a major skill issue.
Yeah there are way cooler Pokémon, like 10% Zygarde, or Corvisquire, or Lombre, or Lumineon, or Alomomola, or Simisage, or Wugtrio
