"Stop fighting over the logos! Share the logos with your brother! Take turns. You can watch a logo, and then your brother can watch a logo (on youtube)." Did I just say that? I wander to my husband's room (where he goes when I kick him out of bed for snoring). He's building another computer. Like five computers in one house isn't enough. "Ian, why are the boys obsessed with watching logos on youtube (PBS, Disney, Paramount, to name a few)?" My husband, continues to build the computer. Then I think about my question as I watch him slot in a video card. He's a computer gamer. His own machine is bizzare, huge with many video cards and water hoses in it. Yes, water running through hoses with pumps and radiators. "Hum...right. Ok..." I answered my own question.
It's all in the family. Asperger's that is. I have three wonderful boys. My husband, Ian. Mitchell, 13 years old and Mason, who is four. Ian, as I pointed out, has a hobby building computers. Mitchell and Mason seem to bond or fight over the small time I allow on youtube (monitored by me). I'm not sure why M&m love to watch logos. Mitchell even wrote a symphony with different logos. Mason is obsessed with the arch over the Disney logo. He loves to study the thick Disney book my father gave him. He turns to the page with the castle and then he proceeds to take his hand and drawn a arch over the castle in the book.
Yes, they could go to different computers, but Mason doesn't have a computer in his room. He's four. I have built a baby gate wall in front of Mitchell's room, but he scales the wall. Mason, has taken our laptop apart twice. And ate the "alt" keys and part of the space bar. I have given up, thrown in the towel, hoisted the little white flag in complete surrender. The computer my husband , Ian was working on today is for Mason. He assures me that Mason (who, again...is four) will not be able to login without a password.
Did I mention, he took apart the laptop twice...and he's FOUR! Mitchell did the same thing when he was that age. :P
Well, it could be worse they could be obsessed with Pottery Barn, and the garden center at the Home Depot. Thank God they don't take after their mother. Then again, I have a blog now. Hum... Yes, it's all in the family. ;P
