While I’m not in disagreement with finding Colin something else to spend his time doing, I kinda have to side with the kid this time, if only because I know interrupting a gamer mid-game like that is just the worst. Kick him off still, sure, but at least let him get to the next good stopping point (save point, finished level, etc—depends on the game) to do so first. Just…actively monitor them while waiting for them to do so to make sure they actually do stop at the next stopping point and not “conveniently forget” to when it comes.

Can’t help noticing it but that’s not even a flat screen TV.
