DS1 has just started secondary school, so more homework.
I do not want him to get into the habit of going straight on his X-Box as soon as he gets home. I want him to start to do some homework just for half an hour after he's eaten and drunk something. Because it is so much harder to get him off the X Box once on it. All I want him to do is make a start on his homework and not leave it all piling up. He sort of gets this but is finding it hard, I want to give him some tough love!
He says that I am being SO UNFAIR and that ALL HIS FRIENDS ARE ON BLAH BLAH BLAH.
I've banned all the shoot em up games to the weekend only.
He does sport and Scouts three evenings a week, so is active.
What do you do in your house with a boy who loves to game after school?
