Tonight, Robert was bringing his mom up to speed on the joys of Facebook- namely, Scrabulous (in short, you can play Scrabble online with far flung friends). Then he bewailed his current losing streak, and Kevin's recent string of bingos. Here's the half of the conversation that I overheard:
"You’re not supposed to root against your own child, you know", Robert said. "... Yeah.... You’re not supposed to relish his pain like this, either. You’re supposed to say, “Oh, what can I do to help you feel better??”

But, what fun would that be?
robert has clearly lost the mother son relationship strongholds. mothers rile their sons up on purpose because they can and it is fun. fill him in on this rule.
hmph. if mom hadn't stopped breastfeeding me at 9 months i'd be smarter and could beat kevin at scrabble.
this is all her fault.
