[QUOTE="SuZir, post: 595572, member: 14557"] Hi Crazyqueen and welcome! You may want to start your own thread on Parent Emeritus or even Substance abuse (it sounds like he has behavioural addiction to gaming. That is not uncommon nowadays and WoW is probably worst culprit.) forum. People may not notice your post from old thread like this. I'm sorry you have so much troubles with your son. Your situation sounds difficult and it really is possible he is not at this moment too able to survive in real world. Gaming addiction can be very crippling. Also the sleep pattern your son has is very typical for that and makes things harder. Like with any other addiction it is very difficult to help if he is not willing to admit his addiction and how it effects his life. I really don't know if taking his computer away or kicking him out would be any answer to anything. Maybe you could consult some therapist specialised to behavioural addictions? Trust me, your son is not only one with this very same issue. [/QUOTE]
