So there's a lot of respect for the game.
It's not imagined as a, as this other bad thing in the house because dad also does it.
Right.
So what that tells your son is this is something worth applying mathematical ideas to.
This is something worth applying the things I'm learning to.
And it's meaningful.
I think about this with my own son.
I have a son who loves to play civilization and,
And I see how when he does his history homework, he's often thinking about all these questions of resources and how the movements went.
And he's trying to apply what he's learned from the strategy game Civilization to his history lesson.
Well, the only reason he does that is because I've encouraged that.
And that's what we want them to be doing.
Then they're learning from both things.
They're learning ways of thinking about the game and ways of thinking about history that are both super useful.
But if we don't encourage that, then we have a kid who can't even make that connection at all.
I mean, they might accidentally make that connection, but wouldn't it be better if we said, every time you're playing a video game, think about how it relates to the things you're learning at school?
Yeah, and draw connections between it and the things you do care about.
You know, I'm glad you brought this up because often I speak and parents go, but I don't like games.
And you don't have to like it to respect it, right?
You don't have to like playing to be able to show your respect for it.
