I don't have kids of my own, but I'm a middle school teacher, and I just cried. What a sweet story! And what an excellent reminder to all of us that we don't know who is on the other side of the screen (or what they're going through). It's easy to think that because it's just a game and we're mostly anonymous, we don't have to consider others' feelings, but interactions in game can make or break a real person's day in real life.
This is such a touching story, thank you for sharing it here!
I like ToT but just play the NPC dailies, I've never tried a RL opponent. But if I ever do I hope they have your sense of class and sportsmanship
