The Wii vs. Mom & Dad

Short blog post. Can't remember in detail anymore, because too much time has passed. I'm writing though because I want to remember as much as I can - it's a clue into the inner workings of his mind. He's obsessed about the Wii. He can earn 2 stickers a day, one in the morning and one in the evening for good behavior. 6 stickers earned, and he can pick a prize from the prize box or play the wii for half an hour. He doesn't have enough stickers yet, but he's convinced that he does. Our whole visit was riddled with, "Can you leave now? If you're done visiting then they'll let me play the wii!" Not true, but he's convinced himself that it is true. He's driving the staff crazy with it too. All day long he asks if he can play the wii. They mentioned in our staffing meeting that he seems to have some fixation, and obsessive tendencies. We know . . . shall we talk about how many times he requested/demanded Ramen for Thanksgiving dinner? There's a reason that we don't have a Wii - can you guess what it is?
