[quote=Anonymous]PP here. It's definitely stressful to think about. A couple of things we did was to get our oldest a cellphone and require him to text as soon as he got home. Then I text back instructions for him - water plants, vacuum, unload the dishwasher, check his grades and send me a report, etc. lots of busy work. One thing about MS is that there hasn't been homework to fill time. After the chores are done, I place no time restrictions on the use of Xbox. And, I check the computer and cellphone texts regularly to see what he's doing. I am pleasantly surprised at how well it's going.[/quote]
