This is just disturbing period. Being a Parent and a Gamer I find it easy to believe that people would get too involed in their game to forget about real life, but this definatley crosses the line into addiction.

I know we all do it. Get a little blindsided to the world when were in the middle of something. This is more than just a day or two. Sad. Very Sad.

That's definately an extreme case and it is very sad. The bright side is those children will now get proper care. But that's precisely why you guys don't see me in-game hardly at all because I place my priorities on family over gaming.
Family first... period.

Yup. Family first. That's pretty much why I'm not playing WoW anymore.
