[quote=Anonymous]I would not couch fortnite/gaming as a treat. Our kids went through this phase and always wanted games. We kept them busy with all sorts of activities that would interest them outside of gaming and after a few years, they really sort of "forgot" about it. Their friends still talk about video games, but it doesn't make my kids salivate the same way they had in the elementary years. I am guessing it is because they know life outside of screen time and have adjusted accordingly. My older one, if he has time, will pick up a book or magazine to read. We also go out and do activities as a family. We take advantage of the local high school games and attend those as a family. There are just too many activities to do.[/quote]
