Yes, I know. But there is a anime show Insomnia right? I have no idea...well...I do...but I don't.


There's a Stephen King novel called Insomnia, I've never heard of any anime called Insomnia.

And...sorry but I don't have a son. So he can't be a computer hacker, if 'he' was real.


But when you do have a son, make sure he doesn't grow up to become a computer hacker!

I have already compelled myself by doing this. I need further info, or my son may be at risk of being a computer hacker!

I don't what else to say.

Maybe you should not let him use the computer at all, or have someone monitor him at all times.

But I don't want to be a paranoid parent. I just will pray that he will be a good son.

Let them play Pokemon and Sim Farm. If they do anything else, slap the ban stick on the computer and make them write "I will not be a computer hacker" on the back of their hand with a nail file.

6. Does your son use World of Warcraft?

Warcraft is an online virtual reality used by hackers. It is a popular meeting place and training ground, where they discuss hacking and train in the use of various firearms. Many hackers develop anti-social tendencies due to the use of this virtual world, and it may cause erratic behavior at home and at school.

If your son is using Warcraft, you should make him understand that this is not acceptable to you. You should ensure all the firearms in your house are carefully locked away, and have trigger locks installed. You should also bring your concerns to the attention of his school.




I play World of Warcraft. I have never heard anyone talk of using firearms . There is quite a lot of mature people on there and you have an ignore list aswell if anyone is doing something innapropriate.

And you have to pay for World of Warcraft using a credit card or going down to your local game store and purchasing a game card so if you dont want them to play it it should not be that hard.

It also makes you waste $15,000 when you come to college and fail because you have a sad addiction to a game.

I'm glad you saw the light.. because so many have fallen into the darkness of what is World of Warcraft.
