Today, in an attempt to get my son to stop playing Call of Duty, I threw his Xbox controller out the window. He was so desperate, he followed it. His bedroom is on the second floor. My son has 3 broken ribs, and no future. FML

...WOW. That's some serious addiction right there. That boy needs therapy. Seriously though OP, you don't need to go that far. You can RROD an XBox 360 just by looking at it the wrong way. I should know -- I own one. -_-

My dad doesn't know I have an xbox. He'd do the same thing hahaha. So I only play when he goes away on business trips which is regular enough anyway.

And it didn't occur to you to, oh I dunno, PARENT him. Lay down some rules regarding how long/often he can play and if he doesn't comply then take the controller AND the power cord for the Xbox away from him (keep it at work so he can't get at it). People don't know how to parent their damn kids these days. You are in charge ffs.

no, it's not just lightweight pro you need. You should learn a bit of parkour too, they learn this in the military and us army, marines, navy seals, etc. then, he could have at least costed you the hospital bill in style! This was soooooooo funny. I am a cod: waw, mw2, and black ops addict, my parents decided to put a lock on the ps3 for m rated games. but I found the password. lol:p!

Well, actually you can argue about that. Games are indeed, like they ALWAYS were, designed to be addicting however you're not supposed to actually get addicted but just return to that game many times (farmville). And many people are not addicted (even when believed so, learn the difference between obsession and something you like to do a lot). So there must be something wrong with a person to actually get thát addicted that he/she can't live without it. If you know your son is easy to get addicted (almost no to none social life, problems IRL, just lazy personality etc.) you make sure he doesn't get near something a virtual, easy to live in, world to escape in. YDI dude, stimulate your son and help him in different ways instead of getting angry. Treat it as a addiction. Games, no matter what kind, are fun but just like everything else it has a limit

my opinion your about a piss poor parent for letting it get that bad... put some damn tools in his hand and maybe he might make something of himself one day..... that is if u make him work
