Does anyone play board games or card games anymore?

My 7-year-old child was invited to a B-day party for a little boy that was also turning 7.  Anyway, when it came to opening gifts, he got Wii game toys, the different controlers and games.  I did not even know the kid had a Wii game, but it seemed like everyone else did.   I bought him a race track and a game of Go Fish.  The race track got an "I already have that" comment and the Go Fish was "what the heck." He did not say that but he kinid of looked at it like that and put it back in the bag.  I wondered if he even knows what Go Fish is.  The only games my child has are board games, card games, those free games you can play on the computer and 1 game that plugs into the TV.  It looks like a joystick and it has 3 games in it.  These games have helped her in her reading because she has to read directions.  She can identify a lot of the ocean fish. 


I was treated like an outcast at the party anyway.  I tried to join in conversations with the other mothers, I would get ignored or very short answers, some would actually walk away.  Then one mother actually turned her back to me to talk to another so I would just listen.  They were talking about building houses, they have lots of land blah blah blah.   They were giving each other advice on what to do with it all.   When the conversation turned to how their kids are struggling in this subject or that that is when I got up and left because they toned their conversation down and then shut it off completely when then thought I was listening, so I thought that was my cue  just leave so they can vent to one another about it.  It was more about the teachers expecting too much blah blah blah.   I have known some of these mothers or their spouses since we were little kids.  They really treated me like trash back then.  I thought that now that we were in our 30s, have not had much contact with each other since HS until now that our kids are going to school together, it would be like water under the bridge.  Guess not.  The families  were wealthier than we were (just about every family was wealthier than we were back then lol) but I know they can't have it that good.  Well, actually I don't know what is in their bank account or care.  The only thing I did have over them is my kid is not struggling in school.  She is making straight As on all her subjects. 


The only reason I went was because my 7-year-old and the 7-year-old boy are really good friends and I thought that maybe me and the other mother could find something in common.  At school, they are in separable so I really wanted dd to go to help him celebrate his special day.  I could not help but notice that dd played with him more and the others were playing among themselves.  I do worry if that tee's the parents off.  I worry that they are going to discriminate against DD because I was a poor little nobody back in school and they were popular.   I worry that they are going to start refusing to let the little boy play with dd and it will break her heart and hate me.  I take baths, I practice clean living, always have, no drugs, alcohol.  I don't even smoke cigarettes.  I pay my bills.  Everything I own, I got honestly, paid for it myself.  Of course, it isn't as fancy as theirs.  H is not from here, he went to school elsewhere.  I used to worry about that too back when we 1st started dating..Him finding out I was an outcast, dork or whatever and hate me.  Now I worry that my child is going find out and resent me. 


Don't play games (SM)
If you change the way you have approached this relationship just to test him, that is playing games and is unecessary.

You should be honest and ask him explaining that it kinda bothers you. If you can't communicate about things, the relationship isn't going anywhere anyhow.

Not calling him just to see how he will react is so high school people!
My sister's kids play video games

constantly and have for a decade. They always have to have the latest game.  She has 4 kids - 3 are obese and one is overweight. 


We don't have one because I didn't want to fight about it constantly.  I'm so glad I stuck to my guns.  I know my husband has wanted to get one.  I have 3 kids and they are all very slender.  They aren't athletes but they aren't couch potatoes either. 


It's a health issue to me, and also a mental health issue, because they are addictive.


Anyone have any ideas on games to play at a luau birthday party? sm

My daughter is going to be 10 at the end of September and wants a luau themed party. I have decorations, a pinata, party favors and cake, but need something for games. I was thinking about pin the coconut on the palm tree! But not so sure I can draw a decent enough tree and coconuts!! LOL.


Any ideas for games?? Thanks. Also, cant be anything to wild as the party is being held in a party room at Pizza Hut.


Gamers are people who play video games. Gaming is
the business of developing video games. The poster probably meant people who like to have fun. If the board has people on it who like to have fun I say great. A lot better than the gripers. So, I should say, is the board being taken over by gripers LOL. Sorry did not mean to make a joke at the OP's expense, but that is like asking if sadness is being taken over by joy. IMHO.
Games
Hello, i was wondering if you'd be willing to sell just the games and if so how many dies she have?
games
Hey guys.. Are there any gamers on this board... I am an avid gamer.. My way of relaxing.  Just wondering. Thanks
games
You are right about Myst. Played that one.. Took forever. I like role playing story games as well. Playing Halo 3 now.. Halo is great. Also like horror games like Silent Hill and Condemned. Glad my child is grown. My husband is big gamer too. He plays Guild Wars.. all the time. Glad we love each other.
scary games
They are so much fun though. I really really like them. I am on a community now online called There.. Kind of like a visit chat community.. almost a game for me.. Meet a lot of nice people.
Help with Pre-k Christmas games...

I am in charge of my son's pre-k parties and have yet to come up with a great game for his Christmas party tomorrow, and I do not have a clue what we can play! Any suggestions or links on line that I can look for? Want something simple and with minimal work and or props.



100% ban on all video games

For the last five years there has been a ban of video games in my house.  My husband and my son were turning into flippin zombies.  We started going on hikes in the mountains instead and now participate in extracurricular activities at the high school and volunteer.


TV has not been banned yet, as I think there would be a mutiny....


My DH works 2nd shift and does not always get to see our son's FB games and sm
never can go to his practices. I sit with other parents rather than alone or with strangers. Sometimes it is moms, sometimes dads. It is really the same as sitting with other fans at a pro baseball or football games. It is easier and more fun to sit with someone that shares the excitement with you. It is 100% innocent most of the time. In fact, I have not seen it otherwise EVER.
My best friend, Cat is in Tenn. & usually is up on all the games. It's a big


party games website
http://www.partygamecentral.com/

I did a quick Google search and came up with this website. It looks there are plenty of games that don't require a lot of moving about or other physical-type activity, etc...

Have a great time!!
I think she might mean the word games on the Gab Board??
Maybe she doesn't like that?? Otherwise, I have no idea either.
To Moderator: Can we please have a games board?

Besides the word association, there are other fun things to do which we can post on breaks for typing.  Before, we had fun on the gab board but it polluted (I admit) the ability of people to read regular gabbing.  Do you think you could consider making a board for word games, and other things like that? It would be appreciated. Thanks for your consideration.


We do...we have lots of board games..
while my son has video games, he likes board games just as much because he knows we will play them with him...it is good quality time also!!!
We do not ban video games or TV in our house BUT
We do limit them. When Santa brought the gaming systems he also brought a contract for the parent's and child to sign limiting the amount of video games on week nights, weekends, and that it is at the parent's descretion if other things need to be completed first. We have never had an argument about video games in my house and my son is 10.

He does not have the latest and greatest, and doesn't have many games. Part of Santa's deal was that any games would be as holiday/birthday gifts OR the child has to save up 1/2 the money and the parent's will pitch in the other 1/2. Surprising how much they don't want things that use their own money.

We also make a point to play board games and such as a family. He helps with laundry, dishes, etc. and of course homework must be done (and checked by parent's) before any video/TV time.

It has never been a problem at our house but I also think he knows that I would not hesitate to toss the sucker out the window if it did become a problem.
Video games/systems
I refuse to buy a system myself.  I have three kids and thought about getting the Wii last year at Christmas time but decided against it.  My kids are very sport oriented and I think a game system would just take away from the active side of sports.  My parents have a Wii and we will play when we go over there so I think they get their fill of it.  My friends/family think I'm crazy because I won't buy one but I'm not changing my mind:)  I don't think people are crazy if they have one, I just don't want one.  Funny how my friends/family don't like me to have my own opinion!! (sorry that last part was me venting)
Need some adult simple games for Christmas

Played a game called White Elephant before and the group loved. Want something really simple to entertain my lovely guests for that day. We are all over the 50 year range so nothing too involved, heck we could not remember! Thanks!


more fun and games with funny movie quotes....sm

"When I'm good I'm very good, but when I'm bad I'm better!"  


Here's your clue: In the same movie another line was used..."Why don't you come up and see me sometime?"   Cat


chocolate. Slots or table games?

Love board games. Buy them Blokus. It is the ...sm
most fantastic game and can be played by children and adults alike. I bought it by accident last Christmas and it was the favorite gift.
I dod get regular paps (sm)
Had one about 7 or 8 months ago. Had dysplasia about 10 years ago, conal biopsy and LEEP. Have always had normal paps since. I have a lot of symptoms don't want to be too graphic - hot flashes, bleeding between periods, pink dschg and another I don't want to say on here. I had attributed all this to perimenopause until this last symptom which has me scared now.
You are a regular laugh

How is it different from regular shampoo?
Is it conditioning? I have to avoid conditioning shampoos, so I've wasted a lot of money trying shampoos that are all about conditioning the hair (It irritates the skin).
Your regular bus driver
desires a poinsetta or something. It's good to reward good service.
regular or flavored?

Well, regular people might be
ignorant but what about the humane shelters who refuse to adopt them out because of their aggressive nature? You can talk and talk but it does not change the fact that these dogs are well known for their mauling and killing of people. Just because you love does not make it otherwise. Stick your head in the sand, no one else cares but most people have sense enough not to own.
Valentine Party games for sixth graders . . .

Does anyone have appropriate valentine games for sixth graders??  This is a tough age to impress; any help would be greately appreciated!!!

Anyone have any good/unique baby shower games?
My oldest daughter is having a baby at the end of June and I am throwing a baby shower. I would like to do a couple of simple games. Any ideas???? Thanks in advance.
Oh, and you forgot, his is not on a regular basis
either. I think he does not have enough information to make any kind of judgement on a home at this time. Where I live in the US you do not borrow from family/friends/anyone to put down a down payment. Rules are strict and no interest is a crazy thing to do. Repossessions are at an all time high- probably because of this.
Does he do this at his regular feeding times?

Have you cut back not only on the amount of food but the amount of times you feed him? If so, that may be why he is reacting this way.


My dog is overweight, too, and since he has problems with his legs, the vet wants us to try to help him lose weight. She said to feed him small meals more often so that he will feel satisfied but to make sure we cut down on the total amount of food given per day.


So maybe that would work with your cat - smaller meals, more often. Worth a try, right?


Relaxing..my regular days off are Wed, Thu, and Fri...
so luck out this year!
diet decaf or regular

regular. Micky D's or BK Lounge?

Bake like a regular potato
They are good if you make them just like a regular baked potato too and just add butter, salt, and pepper. My husband also grilled them in foil this summer with butter and just a touch of brown sugar and they were great. I do not like the canned, fresh are MUCH better and less sweet from the start. I also saw a recipe for sweet potato chips in the oven. I haven't tried it yet and can't remember where I found the recipe but I'm sure you can Google it.
So you do regular maintenance on the computer..sm
Such as check for Windows updates, deleting your cookies and browsing history, scanning for errors, and defragmenting? If you need help with any of this let me know. I can give you instructions on it. I have Windows XP so that is the version I know about. I don't know about other versions. These things really make a difference.
Once they get their pizza and the DVDs going, they'll yak all night & have a blast w/o any games

How about regular old-fashioned wax furniture polish? sm
Beware, Kitty might skid on that towel and dig in with her claws to steady herself.

It's very nice of you to be kitty sitting!

I get mine from a regular grocery store

What you want to buy is a "city" ham, not a "country" ham. City hams have less salt. Smithfield hams are good. I've also tried Cooks' and Hatfield. Don't know if they sell those in your part of the country.


I get a catalog called Burger's Smokehouse and those hams look absolutely fantastic. I would love to order from there but I'm strapped for cash right now. 


The past 2 years, we have gotten a 1/2 pig from a local butcher. DH loves them. I'm not crazy about them.


The only show I watch on a regular basis
is Grey's Anatomy - could NOT live without it!! Really, that's the only TV I watch too. I catch glimpses of other shows as I'm walking through the living room but have too much to do to just sit there.
