[quote=Anonymous]OP here.  I am not happy that he is wasting so much time when we don't have much during the week to waste.  I understand he needs a break but unless I am standing over him, he isn't just going to stop playing games after 30 mins is over.  He has ADHD and has trouble with self regulation.  If he just waited until I got home, his meds would be mostly worn off and then everything takes twice the time.  He uses both Google classroom and IXL for math.  He used to go to his elementary school's afterschool program so he mostly go the HW done there and it was on paper so no electronic distractions.  He can't do it in the morning because I leave for work at 6:45 and he leaves at 7:15.  He takes his meds right when I leave around 6:45 and they last for appr. 12 hours.  I have thought about getting rid of his sport but it would't help much.  His meds have worn off by practice time so he is almost bouncing off the walls by 7pm.  The exercise is just about the only thing that helps him fall asleep at night.[/quote]
