I don't know if this is an emotional moment for everybody, but I have been playing video games with my daughter ever since she was 4. When she was around 5, we played Majora's Mask. There is a part in the gerudo desert where a dad and his little girl live in a house, but the dad went missing, so the daughter is waiting for him at the house. As part of the quest, you go talk to the daughter, then go rescue the dad from underground. So far, so good.

We go down to the dungeons, and the father finally escapes and reunites with his daughter. The moment the dad meets his daughter, my daughter starts bawling.

'Where were you dad? I was alone and missing you! Some strangers (referring to link) even visited the house! Why did you leave me alone??'

I was absolutely stunned by her words and emotions, and it was tough to console her while I was getting emotional myself. I'm getting emotional right now as I type this.

So yeah, that was the most emotional moment in a game for me.

One other emotional moment was from Brothers: A tale of two sons, which I've replied to one of the comments.

I don’t need every Stephen King novel ever written to appear in my interface

Why not?

Liveleak doesn't exist? Wow that's news to me.

Right, but teaching is not the same as discussing some specific quilting topic with somebody who already knows it. Teaching is also something regular with a commitment, where as discussing quilting problems requires no commitment outside the current discussion.

disappointed. Why do these articles always do this?

May be don’t read too much into it. Some people are not that into teaching the basics. Instead may be try some quilt lessons online and then ask her doubts/guidance with some quilting problem. She might be more inclined to engage that way.
