Today, I had to rush my son to the ER after he ate a poisonous plant. He said the plant looked like one in Skyrim and he thought he'd get super powers from eating it. FML

I used to be an adventurer like your son. Until I took an arrow to the knee.

If he's young enough to think that's a good idea he shouldn't be playing Skyrim

I think the difference between 'you deserve it' and 'your life sucks' lies in how old your son is...

Or the morgue, if he’s dumb enough to wait to see if powers materialise before seeking the shaman, err… a parent and a doctor

If he's old enough to play Skyrim, then he should be old enough to know that that's a bad idea.

Well, in all fairness, the game is rated M meaning you need to be (supposedly) 17 or older to purchase. It's then up to the parent to monitor if the child is mature enough to handle it....
