Would you be surprised if he has a couple trips to rehab by the time he hits 30? I wouldn't blame him.

Since I actually had to take the time to learn how to program games on it (there's a definite learning curve, even with someone with a programming background), I've since come to learn a lot more about the game, and now can also talk better with Ben about the whole thing.
I have like a $5/month subscription for Ben on Roblox which gives him a certain amount of Robux, and when it's out, he has to wait until the next month when it auto reloads. Occasionally I'll buy him more, but I don't want to teach him that you just ask for money and get it handed to you when you want something.
I am impressed that he has gotten good at picking out the scams on there, of which there are many. Guess he inherited that gene from me.
BTW, Ben was the default "Baconhair" character on the game for Halloween 2019. That was the first homemade costume we did, and it turned out pretty well. I was surprised there wasn't one you could buy online or in the store, given the popularity of the game.
The two hardest parts were the hair (it's supposed to look like big strips of bacon coming from your head) and the blue-and-black motorcycle shirt, which was impossible to find online. It was even difficult to find the black motorcycle template to have my own shirt made, but I finally came up with it, and then I was able to talk a custom shirt maker in the area into making just one shirt for me, and to do it in the timeframe I needed. I did the design myself and sent it to them. I actually picked it up on Halloween morning, and his mom did the baconhair part. I also bought the shirt and pants which approximately matched on Amazon. It all worked well and the kids at school really liked it.
Oh and Ben was excited to hear Barron Trump was on Roblox, and sent him a friend request. Probably will be ignored, but we'll see.
I don't understand why a Jewish kid wouldn't celebrate Halloween.
Yes, Ben will have a Bar Mitzvah. The "Americanized" version of it without reading the Torah sucks, and is pointless unless you just want to have the Bar Mitzvah so you can throw a party for your own friends and relatives.
My Grandmother on my Dad's side(was at least 80 I think at the time), was so emotional that she starting balling out in tears when she entered the Shul, that everyone turned around and was curious as to the commotion. She later said that she never though that she would live that long to see me getting Bar Mitzvah'd and me reading from the Torah. I was diagnosed with hyperactivity as a kid, and as a result she wasn't willing to babysit me, but that's a different story.
I, at the time, had a small family as well(8 immediate relatives), but even if there's just one person in the Shul that gets to witness Ben becoming a man, its worth it. It's going to be hard practicing, as it took me about 2 months with lessons, but always remind him that.
I didn't know it was possible to have a Bar Mitzvah without reading from the Torah. That would be the blue balls of Bar Mitzvahs.
