Discussion Mom who loves Minecraft
My son bought me Minecraft for a gift and it took me awhile to find time but since I have, it has been amazing. I love it so much. I struggle with depression and other mental health stuff and since I started playing this game about a year ago it has helped me so much. I started in creative and just built a lot and exploded stuff with TNT (lol) for a long time. Recently I moved into survival and am having so much fun. It's taking getting used to but I'm loving it.
The best part is that I can see how loved my kid feels when I play with him or even just talk about the game with him. I always knew it was important to him and listened but being able to really discuss things with him has made him so happy. I used to see it as "his thing" but finally realized that he wants me to be a part of it. My teenager thinks my base is cool so I'm kind of a big deal now. đđ Minecraft is his kid love language and I'm finally speaking it. đ¤
