When I was in first grade my parents got me a Nintendo Wii and it was what got me through my early childhood. When I was little, my parents divorced and by first grade I finally was able to wrap my head around the fact that my parents did not love each other. That confused me but I understood just enough, enough to the point where I blamed myself for this situation. In that time, I also did not get much positive reinforcement from my parents it was mostly fighting. And that simple “Great Job” at the end of a “Super Mario” level was just enough to keep me going. Over time, I learned to not need that great job but if not for that I don’t know if I’d be here now.
