[quote=Anonymous]I have never limited screen time because I feel if we forbid something, it's always what they want. I have 2 boys, ages 16 and 18. My rules have always been get As and Bs (both have that ability and are good students) exercise every day go outside every day family dinner/movies/outings are without screens do your chores' and if you do that, you can do whatever you want with the rest of your day. And I never bug them or try to get them off their video games--- I just kind of give them the impression it is lame. My 18 year old rarely plays video games - maybe never, he does watch a lot of netflix and texts his friends My 16 year old plays A LOT of video games, but he still does the required things and even he gets tired of it sometimes and turns it off - probably because he knows he can play again whenever. We treat it like no big deal. [/quote]
