Who knew?

My 11 year old, Jon, and I have been playing a game of Scooby Doo Monopoly over the past couple of days. We always end up having to put it aside to do something else. Well, this morning we decided that we were going to finish our game once and for all. Well, when we started, Jon questioned me as to why I buy every property I land on? Well, he found out today when I was killing him with rent! I owned quite a few properties and I put hotels on them as quickly as I could. The tears of frustration were flowin for him. I was shocked! I kept asking if we could just put it away only to be yelled at! "I'm not a quitter, I don't give up!" Well, he finally gave up, owing me over $8000! He was sooooo pissed off. "I never lose monopoly! You cheated me, you suck Mom!" I never knew my son was such a poor sport! Needless to say, I won't be playing Monopoly with him anytime soon!
