I am SO planning on gaming with my children. It's just another way of playing make-believe... and you just have to pitch it to their level. Can't you imagine, after reading them The Hobbit, letting them pretend to be hobbits and roaming around Middle Earth, exploring Tolkien's universe?

Most gamers also tend to have pretty good math skills too.

Of course, from the sound of it, I think we tend to mostly associate with intelligent gamers who have managed to aquire a fair amount of social graces as well. I've certainly known some gamers that I would keep away from children (or anyone I cared about) with a chair, a whip and a chainsaw.
