Something small that turned into a real lesson at our house. In co-op, Evan loves to run ahead and grab every chest while I stay behind and soak up the fight. Then I die, the gear takes a hit, and we pay for it.
It's about you looting the chests while I'm getting the tar kicked out of me and then I die.
What I've noticed is that saying the pattern out loud, calmly, in the moment, works better than getting frustrated after. He's ten. He isn't trying to leave me hanging, he just really likes treasure. So we're learning to trade off who fights and who grabs.
How do you split up the work when you play games with your kid, and does one of you always end up carrying it?
