My confession is that we are not playing Pokemon Go. I don’t have a problem with other people chasing Pokemon throughout their towns and cities. I think it could be a really fun way to connect as a family. That said, I always want people to consider balance and self control. Something like this can become obsessive and lead us all to walk around like zombies and ignore one another. As long as you have found a healthy balance, and it is building into relationships rather than detracting them then it’s not a big deal.
Even though I’m not doing Pokemon Go, I can still get into the craze in other ways. These Chocolate Covered Strawberry Pokemon Go Balls are my contribution to the popularity of this game.
