Subject: Computer/Screen rules need input thanks!
I see computer gaming someday being added to a long list of formerly feared technologies:
"Conrad Gessner, a Swiss biologist in the 16th century, really didn’t like the invention of the printing press because, he felt, it would lead to information overload. He urged various monarchs to regulate the trade, so the public wouldn’t have to suffer with the “confusing and harmful abundance of books.”"

As someone wrote above, as long as school and home priorities are done, our teens can spend the remaining generally time as they wish any day of the week. They watch zero TV, mainly because we have no cable or Netflix, so a good part of that remaining time is on the computer mostly gaming, but also programming and creating stuff.
