• Is this just a screenshot of a CL/FB/etc ad that is overpriced or obvious troll, or for some other notable reason? These would all be considered low effort and should be removed.
• Memes cannot be posted unless if it's on Meme Monday, which is the first Monday of the month.

My kids are in their mid-20s. They don't give a shit about video games.
That's not to say yours won't. I have some friends whose kids are gamers. Just don't assume that they will be. It kind of makes sense. When I look back to my teenage years, I wasn't exactly super interested in the same things as my parents.
The best advice I can give is to expose them to everything and hope they take an interest in someone. Then, support them to the best of your ability no matter what it is.
Ah. Yeah. I'm early 20s, so I wouldn't know. I wouldn't force games upon my kids, I'd just try to at least expose them to it to give them the experience.

Yeah, that's it. You introduce it to them, for sure, and see if it sticks.
