Why did he make a server?

Your 9 year old was making a server and not playing Minecraft. Tell him to delete the server files and redownload Minecraft from the website. Here is the link : http://www.minecraft.net/download. Click the Minecraft.exe file and that's how you play Minecraft. Don't make a server with the Minecraft_Server.exe. If his jar file is corrupted, then do this : 

1. Got to your start menu and type in "Run".
2. Click the run program and type in "%appdata%" (without the quotations).
3. When your in, then delete the .minecraft file.
4. Close all the folders and start up Minecraft.
5. Log in and it'll download the .minecraft folder again and it'll be a fresh folder.
6. Problem Solved. :D
