Discovered last night that DS charged $280 worth of video games to our credit card yesterday!! I thought he was improving, so much that we let him stay home alone for a few hours at a time while we went to work (which is good, he’s aged out of most daycares) but now he goes and does this?? “Good” news: we go the money back after I spent an hour and a half on the phone fighting with Sony last night.
Obviously, he’s lost the privilege of playing games online, that PS4 account is done. And he’s not getting a new one any time soon. He’s grounded, doing some extra chores, and for today I took him to his grandparents house. But I am literally at a loss.
Now he’s saying he NEEDED a game because he was bored and I won’t buy him one. Dude, go do some of the chores people offered up if you want a game! I DO NOT HAVE MONEY FOR GAMES JUST LYING AROUND. Nor is a child entitled to them! He’s screaming he’s going to kill himself (scared to leave him home alone NOW), he hates us, screw you, F you guys….he went on and on for hours about how awful we are. Like HE was the victim.
And now, he’s only worried about getting games back. Not acting or verbalizing ACTUAL remorse at all. He mumbled sorry one time last night, but then went back to yelling that he wanted more games because we don’t play with him (nevermind that we ask ALL THE TIME to play and he says he’d rather not play with us).
I’m at a loss on this kid.
