[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm considering buying a laptop for my son, who is starting middle school next year. I want him to be able to complete whatever homework assignments/research/printing he needs to do independently. I also have no objections to him playing video games for a limited amount of time each weekend assuming all the homework is completed. What I am trying to avoid, however, is unlimited computer use for gaming and socializing at night and on weekends. My son tends to lose all self-control when it comes to computer usage, and I'm worried that having a personal computer in his room will exacerbate the problem. Any thoughts on how to give him what he needs while keeping his computer usage under control? [/quote] If this is to carry to and from school, be sure to get a good carry case or it will be broken fast. Modern laptops aren't as durable as the ones from two decades ago. They never really were that durable though, but really fragile now. [/quote]
