| 484999 | 2006-09-16 23:58:00 | "He has a lot of important exams this year..." "reading a book..." The closest thing I can liken those two things to is the plague. Avoid at all costs. :D But just sit him down and tell him to ask first and you will let him go on it. I'm sure he will be reasonable. If not then buy him his own. |

| 485001 | 2006-09-17 01:57:00 | $1000 is still a lot to spend on a computer you are going to give away, even if it is to your son. You could probably pick up a second hand socket A computer fairly cheap & chuck a video card in it - that would be enough for most games. Banning your son from the computer during the week is a logical step, but you also have to make it easy for him to learn. When I was in high school, my parents thought I spent too much time reading & not enough time learning, so whenever they found me reading a book, they would find some menial task for me to do. It didn't do any good untill I got a few really good teachers that could adjust their teaching style to suit their students. |
