[quote=Anonymous]There’s gotta be something else your kid likes to do, no? Can you nudge them even slightly toward that? Baby steps. Also, can you find alternate media that’s related to the game franchise? Many popular video game franchises have a line of books, toys, tabletop games etc. Maybe start there. And if your kid is truly addicted, maybe just resign yourself to focus on the positives. Staying home and playing games can keep them out of other types of trouble that kids and teens are apt to get into. Video games can also help reinforce skills such as problem solving, perseverance, teamwork, etc. [/quote]
