Have you ever gotten in trouble for playing a video game when you shouldn't have? For example, have you ever been grounded from playing video games and gotten caught sneaking in some playing time anyway?
There was one time when I was spending the night with a relative and there was a SNES in the room that I was sleeping in. Well, once lights were out, I got out of bed to play a little in the dark. I just had to keep the volume on the tv down extremely low and keep myself quite while I played. I played until I got tired and then I went back to bed. That was the only time I ever got to sneak out of bed to go play a video game because I couldn't do it at home without getting caught red handed.
Yes when I was a kid I didn't use to do my homework so my mom forbid me from playing my Genesis. So I use to wake before dawn to sneak in some game time. I got caught eventually and my mom hid my console. And I didn't play for like a month
I don't have to be sneaky with it now either since I am an adult. I only remember sneaking in some playing time that time I spent the night with a relative. At home as a kid, I didn't have the console in my room which made it impossible to sneak in playing time without getting caught.
