        Older USB are the worst for kids. We have considered newer devices just to update the connectors!

            That's just it,.. these are the iOS Lightning cables, they are killing them AT the USB connector. The charger is fine as it the device end.

              I got the longer ones with the plan they would last longer since they weren't jerking directly on the connectors....

                Sure, now they'll be tripping over the cable and losing an eye on the corner of a table.

                  He's a web master, so of course SQL Server 2008 R2?

                  Terms like "the database departed" make this pretty hard to follow.

                    His database flew out of town, obviously...

                      It's funny that his database departed, but then he wants to work on it. Which is it?

                          This is best read if you image the OP as being the All-Powerful Beginning Webmaster, the first of his name, Creator of Databases, Master of Information, and Overseer of Departed Components.

                                @gjacobse Try the USB cables where the connector is magnetic so they can't break the cable.

                                  First night of normal sleep for all of us. It feels good.

                                  Now finally moving out of our suit cases so we can put them away and live like normal people.

                                      Those would be perfect - except it needs to be the other end.

                                        Normal sleep... yea,.. that would be a novel or even a novella of an idea here.
