Board Games and Playing them!

My son and I used to play board and similar games all of the time. Monopoly, Game of Life, Sorry, Go for Broke, Scrabble, Upwords, Payday, Kerplunk, Yahtzee etc. We could spend hours doing so, and having loads of fun. We are both quite competitive so we would get right into the tactics of the games. Quite often we would finish one game and then one of us would offer a challenge for another game. Now he seems to spend all his time out with friends or in on his xbox which is a shame . If I suggest a game I usually get a 'maybe later' but then later he doesn't want to play. When he was little we used to play all the time, which not only was fun but also educational for him too. Unfortunately it is just the two of us living at home now, so unless I invite friends round to play, they are sitting in the drawers in the spare room, feeling neglected. I might have to suggest it again for tonight and see what response I get.

Yeah we have definitely been on a rampage when it comes to board games,guess who was kind of fun,but it got boring fast,battleship was fun too,but you kept sinking my ships,even though I had only played battleship a couple times since I got it,the game of life is a lot of fun too,and you never know what your going to land on,and I know when my mom decided to play you kept getting a winning streak,monopoly was not as much fun as I remembered it to be,but maybe because there was only the two of us playing,and Clue is a lot of fun,and I had never played the board game,but I have read several of the books,and played a Sega and computer version of it,and though there was only the two of us,it was still fun,and hopefully my mom will play it with us today,and there are still other games we have not played yet,I would have to say that this is the first time I have ever had a rampage of board games,but we do need to play them more often,I love you.
