A lesson on the importance of encouraging your children with their projects
This sort of story makes me sad. We don't have a tree house, we don't even have a tree. We don't have money to spend at the DIY store to keep the house in shape never mind making checkers boards for fun. I thought I was getting pretty good at quenching the covetousness that society seemed to have imbued me with but when one realises that stuff is needed for many uplifting experiences.Realising the great joy certain things brought me as a kid and realising that those things are beyond the reach of my kids ... Gah.A happy story made me sad; I'm too easily depressed.Aside: email games seems really retro.
