> YOUR SON DOES NOT WANT TO LEARN TO CODE (right now) This. 100% this. He wants a game, that he can tell himself and everyone that it is His and he wants you to do it for him. He does not want coding to show up in the way! Take this as a chance to show him that he can build things, the way he wants it. Make an effort and let him see it. Give him a taste for it. There's wisdom in that quote about longing for the vastness of the sea to make good sailors. There will be joys in small wins. It will surely never complete. But he and you both will cherish the wild imagination that comes with something like this.
