dcell phones, PC games, and related junk are what led me to dust of an ons D&D book (Shhh don't tell!). A Week later, I bought d20 (MRQ was months from release) and I set about stealing my kids from the omnipresent distractions. After saving the frontier, I introduced them to MRQ (finally released) I'm not a great GM but they went on a quest to earn their names, got sick eating the pumpkin off a Jack O' Bear (silly).
I have added two player to the next Generation. I know three other dads with five kids total doing the same. Some form of RPG playing is a popular form of entertainment night around Acworth.
I do think it's going to change, maybe for their better buy gaming isn't going anywhere soon.
Especially if you guys get out there and have little trollkins for the games of the future.
