The end of the world as you know it

Posted on May 27, 2013 by Marie Colantoni Pechet

Our two boys, ages 9 and 6, were playing some computer game in my bed this morning. I couldn’t see the game, but this is what I heard:

Boy 9: Go over here. It takes you to the end of the world. It’s awesome.

Boy 6: No way. Then I would die.

Boy 9: Yeah, but then you reappear. And it is awesome.
