(editing to remive double post!)

Veteran status is the fifth, if I remember correctly.

...Unless they specifically ask for it.

Fear not! All you have to do is sit in a rocking chair facing the tv. Hold the baby in one arm (head in elbow) and then you can hold the controller with both hands to play. It's a great way to keep yourself entertained while baby falls asleep. My husband is a master at it.

That's exactly what I came hear to say.
However, cars are acceptable as gifts for your teenage/adult children, as long as you can afford it and your spouse agrees. (Although your kid may be upset about the type of car you bought for them...)

I rarely get anything but free apps. Sometimes I'll pay 1.99, but that's it—with one exception. Sprout Baby's premium version was definitely worth the $4.99. But that was after using the free trial, so I KNEW I would use the premium version enough to be worth it.
