Here's irony for you: a 15 y.o. boy ran away from home here in Ontario a few weeks ago after his parents had grounded him from his X-Box. They felt he was addicted to it (actually to a certain game and its online community). They argued about the time he was spending gaming and the boy took off on his bike. His body was found last week. The autopsy results released yesterday concluded that his death was
due to a fall from a tree.
So...was it being out in the great outdoors, tree-climbing, that killed him, or was it the lack of practice?
I really hope his parents do not go the "If we had not got into it, he would have been safe in his room and not up that tree" route.
