It has been positively awful since you brought down our livelihood. The sad part is that I truly don’t think you realize how your actions didn’t affect who they were aimed towards. The people that were affected were the ones that had nothing to do with the issue.

This has been a wonderful and motivating journey trying to teach my children how holding a grudge and retaliating doesn’t just affect the one that they are upset at, but rather everyone else. It is the ripple effect. You throw a rock in the water, and at the middle is where the least amount of damage done but the ripples continue to flow outward for quite a ways, affecting everything outside of the initial attack zone.

I truly understand that you were upset, but being upset doesn’t help you to achieve greater things.  In the end, you will never be satisfied, even if at the current moment you are basking in your glory. Trust me when I say, that feeling will be short lived.

Think about how much cooler you would be, and how much you would be liked if you would channel all of your aggressions into something more productive.

As of right now, you have turned your aggression from being directed at Sony’s PlayStation Network -  causing it to be taken down for multiple days – into a situation where now you have approximately 70 million people pissed off at you. If I had to take a guess, we the people outnumber your asses.

Perhaps a great punishment would be for the PlayStation Network Hackers to babysit all of our children for the same length of time as the outage lasts.

What are everyone else’s thoughts on creative punishment?

I am honestly shocked and frustrated about the Sony’s PlayStation Network being down.

We just purchased Socom 4 on the release date as a birthday gift for my husband.

Since our children are always so anxious about playing video games, we use the motivating tactic that involves earning time on the PS3. In order to earn playing time they need to do their chores, and make sure their homework is done.

Everyone has been on their best behavior, and I promised them that when the weekend started they could try out the new game. Unfortunately, as of right now, they still can’t play online.

What makes this so frustrating, is that Sony has yet to send out any notification email or anything on this situation.

Granted, there is a ton of speculation on why this has happened, and whether “Anonymous” Hackers were involved. Who cares – just get it done!

We are well into day 2 – and still it is down. I think it’s time to redirect our focus from, “Who did it?” to the more important question, “When will it be fully operating?”.

What will the kids do now – it’s really wet and cold outside.
