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.

this would be more interesting if your son is over 40. And a midget.

well, for 1) ydi for being a biatch. it's his future not yours. for 2) you don't just throw a controller out the window. that ***** expensive. and for 3) ..... I dont have a third point.

Why is everyone going on about the controller? The parent bought the xbox so obviously bought the controller too, so if he wants to throw his money away that's his right. I've thrown my Kids' toys away, I giveth I can take away. That's the right of being a parent!

Oh wow...I am so sorry. I would start limiting his game play. When I was a kid I was allowed an hour and after my hour was done I had to hand in the controllers.

seeing as you were born in '85, are you talking about the N64?

I've been there... I'm a recovering COD addict lol

Anyone else here find it amusing that all the posters 24yrs and older agree with the parent, and all the whiny teeny-boppers under 21 side with the couch-monster? To be young and stupid again...

I'm 19. I think the bad decisions and moronisity is pretty much shared between son and parent. Son shouldn't play that much CoD, and should not have jumped out the window. Parents shouldn't destroy their children's property.
