You are absolutely right. He just wants to be like his cousins (he's an only child). He has some others that are at his level. We also limit his play to 30 minutes a day. Thanks for responding. I appreciate it...
Sounds like he's too young for the game. His cousins are much older, he's only 6. Maybe you can find some games that are a little easier/more age appropriate and perhaps he'll do much better with the game and forget about the other one. He's not obsessed with winning but is upset and frustrated at not being able to navigate well enough to get to the next level. Kids get frustrated when they can't do something, it's perfectly normal. Younger kids don't know how else to express their frustration.
