Overheard Compartment: Question of the Week

My nephew, H., asked his father:

"How long do we have to play before we can play Xbox?"

Answer: 24 minutes.

Essentially, H. was inquiring on behalf of his friend and himself, "How long must we play before we can play?"

I don't even know if I, as an adult, have the assiduousness to play for 24 whole minutes before I can play.

I really think this is an unreasonable expectation.
