One of my favourite Facebook groups right now is called Moms Against Minecraft Addiction. It’s a fascinating group of people, all with valid concerns. In a mom post about a 5 year old girl playing Minecraft, I liked this small piece of advice.

What if parents became addicted to this kind of thing?
