Although his son confessed he had been using the card illicitly, Perkins said his son, too, was truly shocked at how much he had spent.

"He thought it was a one-time fee for the game," Perkins said.

You son is either a mongoloid or a liar.

Hope you throw out your chessboards and playing cards, too, instead of having a sane reaction and bitching out your damn near adult child for not using the literacy you paid for with all those years of schooling.

How the hell do you rack up that much?

I'm not sure how one is too stupid to figure out the astronomical cash being spent while at the same time having enough brainpower to turn the console on a load a game correctly.

My bro once wracked up 200 dollars in room charges on a cruise ship for porn. We were sharing a room, too. I had just hit legal drinking age on a ship (18), so I would go socialize at night and he would stay in the room and explore puberty a whole other way....

Sometimes the instant gratification is worth it for adolescents, even though you know the doom is coming when the bill comes a week later.

Though how you spend that much on FIFA is baffling. Maybe the kid had to have every team in the world, kind of like a weird soccer version of Pokemon.
