Question by Tom M: How Many adults have children with xbox addictions?
I had to take it away because my 16 year old son is flunking 10 grade? Any suggestions?

Answer by jelena
well… it’s common. and it depends on you.
there’s probably no ratio or percentage out there, but i’d say a good 4:10 families saying that they are financially sound and actually own gaming systems; xboxes, nintendo wii’s, PlayStation’s, etc.
the question here for you is, is it really an addiction?
my suggestions would be to analyze how badly he’s flunking, does he not hang out with his friends, isolate himself all the time, or for periods longer than 4 hours; cause if any of those are really true for him then he’s totally addicted.
even so, being addicted, you should only ban him for short periods of time (a couple of days) and when he’s allowed to play let him for only a short period of time (less than 2 hours, no more) so he doesn’t go out and just play video games at a friends house.
it’s more than just having him being addicted and not letting him play ever ever again, because he might want to start up again on his own, it’s more of gradually getting him to realize he needs to focus on more important, non-virtual matters. like his school work and actually talking to his friends and family. these will always continue to affect his future and life, unlike being a lvl 67 mage.
i hope none of this seems biased, me being a former “addict” or really unclear. feel free to email me, got nothing better to do. jennabon@yahoo.com or jennabon@live.com

Question by cucumberlarry1: Teens: Why do many teens do things that they know will hurt them?
Why do some teens do drugs/alcohol when they know it will hurt them? Do they really believe it when they say things like, “If you get the right kind of Ecstasy, it’s safe,” or “Just smoking marijuana doesn’t hurt you”?

Why do girls go to tanning salons when they know the risk of cancer or frying their ovaries could be worse than using natural sunlight?

Is it peer pressure? Do you really listen to adults and take them seriously when they tell you not to do things?

This is definitely NOT the first time that I’ve seen this. Why are so many parents giving in to their kids addiction to the bottle and pacifier at that age? It’s like some people actually get mad if you say something about it. They know it’s abnormal, but they don’t want you to bring it to their attention. I have a relative that allows her 3 year old to suck a bottle full of juice every night.

Weird.
Love Ya – I am sorry, but regardless of the situation, age 4 or 5 is too old for a child to be slurping on a pacifier. Stop making excuses. It’s laziness on behalf of the parent. I can understand that kids need to feel secure but sucking a bottle or pacifier shouldn’t be their security blanket. I am not judging anybody in particular and I don’t need to know any circumstances. It’s not right, period.

I have a friend who just turned 18. He is on heroin; a very addictive and lethal drug, by far the most dangerous in my opinion. He started experiementing with drugs at the age of 14, starting with marijuana on to different sorts of drugs like mushrooms, acid,meth, cocaine and so on up to heroin. He got addicted to heroin at 16. He is 6’2″ and weighed at 90lbs.. on his near death scale. He started being home schooled because he couldn’t go to school anymore. He recieved some treatment and put some weight on, now weighing at 134 lbs. Anyway, the point of my story is that it is incredibly sad t see so many young faces disappear before getting a taste of an independent life. My friend, for example, is on his way to a young death. He still uses heroin. No one can stop him. He is addicted and craves it.

What can we do to stop this madness? Why are so many teens choosing this route in life? Where are the parents?
