How can I control my time?

How can I control my kids not to play computer game all the time?

  • my 2 kids spend most of their time front of computer, pc games.My 8 years old one recently has no concentration on his school homeworks. can any body tel me how can I control them?

  • Answer:

    Same deal here. I'll tell you what works: - Setting a timed automatic log off/shutdown thing. - Simply put on a password/change the password so that the kids don't know It. - Internet games won't be available If you disable Internet. Enable It when you need to use It (8 year olds won't be smart enough to know how to enable It themselves) - If nothing works - Locking up parts the computer (monitor/keyboard/mouse/powercord - any one of these would work) In a random room/cupboard and keep the key with you at all times. No 8 year old would know what to do next. Just don't give In when he begs.

Be a parent and put your foot down. Tell them they aren't allowed to go on the computer on school nights. Or they can go on after they are done with ALL of their homework and getting good grades.

sure...YOU are the parent. TAKE the things out of the house, unplug them or put LOCKS on things. Ever heard the word NO...as in NO YOU CAN'T.

Im not even a parent but I know that rules are rules. So give them a time limit and make them stick to it. You are the mother so what you say goes am I not right about this?
