[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Guarantee he has loser friends that don't do anything but "chill" after school and snapchat and group message him and offer to game online from 2pm-10pp. It normalizes "chilling", i.e. EVERYONE(!!!) else is chilling, why can't I? Good luck. A shitty peer group undermines any progress you make inside the house.[/quote] This is not always the case. My DS also needs a break when he gets home. He literally lays on the couch and decompresses. He doesn't want to talk or interact in any way. I'm home most days, so I personally witness this. After he's reenergized, he does his homework. For some kids being up at 6am and not getting home until 3 is a long day. It's ok for them to pick when they have down time, as long as they get their homework and other chores done.[/quote]
