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.

I'm not to proud to have a similar experience

Assuming your son was a teenager, FYL. If your son was a young child, why the hell are you letting him play games like Skyrim that are rated for mature audiences?

Your son is a special little snowflake isn't he..

Video games have ruined this generation.

People failing to actually parent their children are ruining every generation.

Video games have been around since the mid-to-late 20th century, so by your ****** up logic, they ruined those generations too.

Video games are not ruining this generation. Ignorant people with access to videogames are.

Was? Why are you speaking in past tense? You ARE an idiot and clearly the water caused some harm.

Welp... your son gets the Darwin Award for his monumental stupidity.

Unless your son is a young child or developmentally disabled, his lack of common sense won't show kindly on your parenting skills.

An alchemist he is not. I am very curious as to which plant it was and which Skyrim plant he thought it looked like though.

That's what happens when you let your child be raised by video games

Letting your kid play a videogame is not "letting them be raised by videogames". I'm sure if he was copying a tv show you wouldnt care as much. Kids copy everything not just videogames.
