and what makes you think she prefers the game to the real thing?
I should be so lucky.
If she wasn't so good-natured I would be worried.
I'm sure many of you are thinking "Suuuurrrreee she's good-natured. Just you wait..."

You need to rewire that game so it sends small shocks to her everytime she completes a transaction or purchases something. That way she gets conditioned to dislike the mall in a Pavlovian-type response.
Do it.
Do it now.

I'd much rather wire it send large shocks to her mother... and her mother's friend...
this is the kid who, when asked what she wanted for Christmas said "umm... I don't know. A cookbook. A bathrobe. An Ella Enchanted DVD. That's all."

It's ok, PH, she's not much for candlelight, and she can't walk very far anyways.
