[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I feel like this is all that gets talked about when I invite boys over from DS7’s class. Is this typical, or have we just not found a different crowd yet? We are pretty low screen and have not given in to the wishing for video game / Apple Watch / iPad yet. I am hoping we can stay off those things for another few years but maybe I am not being realistic here. [/quote]

I agree 7 is too early.  By 8 they'll figure out how to play free online game on school issued computer, and by 9 they'll figure out how to load up the games on web browser on home wi-fi and play all the way on the school bus to school and doing the same in the afternoon on their way back.  Make it hard for them, they'll find a way, don't worry, just don't make it easy.

I got my DS8 a computer (just a little cube attached to a monitor), he plays free &lt;insert here&gt;.ios games on them, but he also get to code on scratch.  He also learns to type.  and take chess zoom classes.  
Don't just give him video game/apple watch/ipad.  Give him a computer with keyboard. At least they can learn typing.
