Parental gripe.
A few months ago I bought BGUT (now13) a small, 8x6" graphic tablet, Wacom, neat, works off the box with everything, yada yada.
She isn't using it, instead drawing in the even smaller Switch screen... but whines that I won't get her "a real tablet", says she isn't used to (stomp stomp, notice verb) looking up to monitor from tablet pen/surface.
TL;DR wants a Porsche, but hasn't learned to drive a Beetle
She keeps whining, I am getting her this tiny etch-a-sketch, instead.
