[QUOTE="MICHL, post: 178659, member: 321"] I limit the use of computer and tv to when my difficult child (13) earns it. He can buy time with allowance or he can shower, read or do homework for time. He just got his handheld play station (PSP) to work. How do I control his time on this? He will need to earn time on it, however, he will not give it back at the set time. Yesterday I took the charger cord when he refused to give it back, and he had a total tantrum. He is grounded from it for a while, but he is away at camp for a week, so when he gets back I'll need a plan. It's easy to limit the easy child & tv, because they have time controls that i can set, but this hand-held PSP has me stumped. I supposed as a consequence of not giving it back, I could keep it locked up for a day or two. Any advice is appreciated. Also, often after he has a good dinner and brushes his teeth, he will snack, and then refuse to brush his teeth again before bed. I wish I had a door to lock up the kitchen after a certain time, but do not. He often does not brush his teeth well, or at all, morning or night.
