Today, my four year old got mad that he couldn't find his favorite character on the Wii. So, he decided to smash the Wii remote into my $700 LCD TV, shattering the screen. That was the only TV in the house, and the $80 service plan I bought doesn't cover accidental damage. FML

YDI for letting your 4 year old play a Wii unsupervised, also because you probably bought the Wii to keep him out of your way so you can do whatever you want without having to worry about him. He's 4 years old, he would have been perfectly content to play with the simplest of toys if you hadn't introduced him to gaming.

my 6yr old lives to play Monopoly on the Wii. Fortunately, she does not have a nasty temper and knows not to throw objects out of anger (especially in the house).

#91: that is true! My friend has a 13yr old boy and he is a spoiled brat. Mom buys him every latest new gadget and he doesnt take care of them. Two days after he got a psp, he lost it. He lost a cell phone too. His mom bought him an iPhone to replace the lost one. He has a very expensive computer in his room that looks like shit cause he never cleans it (prob doesnt run the anti virus either I suspect). He earned none of it, has everything given if he whines enough.

Therapy? Why spend money on something a wooden spoon can cure? Spank the kid, and no electronics 'till he's 12. 4-year-olds don't need Wii, and they don't need psychoanalysis.

Just because a small child CAN play expensive video games on an expensive tv, doesn't mean they SHOULD. There are children who CAN drive cars competently as well (raised on farms etc, it's legal if not on a public road, at least in my country).

True, not all children should, but if the child acted out in this way I'm assuming he would act the same even if wii and TV were not involved. Behavioral problem is still a problem no matter what circumstances it involves. Which was what I was trying to get at, I guess I didn't do that so well.

Why does everyone assume the kid wasn't supervised? Anyone who has had any interactions with 4 year olds know that they're tempermental and can get pissed and start throwing things in a second without warning. OP: That sucks. I personally would not have let a 4-year old play with something so expensive at all. They can be unpredictable. Hopefully he'll learn his lesson when he realizes that he won't be watching TV for a while.

That's not true. My little brother is 5 and has been playing wii regularly since he was 3. Pretty sad, he gets first place on rainbow road in mario cart every time and is able to beat everyone in our family. But my point is, the OP probably hasn't taught her child correct ways to express his/her emotions if he reacted this badly. And don't give me the crap that the child is only 4, because if you reinforce it enough they will understand.
