[QUOTE="Andy, post: 409058, member: 5096"] He did not earn the sleepover. It was something the boys decided on their own. I have not seen Black Ops - According to H's mom it is full of swearing and sexual induendos. The boys are 14 years old - really starting to show interest in this type of stuff. Why can't kids be as interested in age appropriate stuff? Always going for the junk they are not old enough for? Fine with me if she doesn't allow it in her home and I will back her rules for her house to difficult child anytime. It is none of our business if we agree or disagree, we follow the rules of the home we are in. I just don't like her son using my son's name to try to force his mom's hand in giving this game back to him. Why in the world would she buy it for him in the 1st place? It is rated M - oh, yeah, because he wanted it and told her that difficult child has it or plays it (so not true!). It blows me away that she actually believes everything her son tells her that I allow! Just because difficult child says, "Oh, I can do that!" doesn't mean he is allowed to do that. difficult child has an X-Box 360. It was a huge decison on H's side if he should get an X-Box or PS3. (trying to keep up with or surpass difficult child) I think H is playing his PS3 against difficult child's X-Box and had to have a brand new game to show his friends that he gets games whenever he wants.
