[QUOTE="gcvmom, post: 248003, member: 3444"] I think you have to decide ahead of time, and explain to him, what the consequence is for violating this particular rule. So if you decide that it's to be X days, then tomorrow morning, explain that henceforth, yea, even forever, the punishment for playing video/computer games after "lights out" is "X DAYS PERIOD". Write it in large block letters and post it on the wall next to his bed if you have to. Maybe even above the monitor. We have same problem with difficult child 1 and his DS. It's 10:30pm right now and I'll betcha he's in there playing it. He's gonna lose it until the weekend if that's the case. Just like he's lost the use of his cell phone until his grades improve.
