Everyone's advice is helpful! Some of you are saying that it's normal to go on a device like a computer to blow off some stress, like I do on my tablet. But my brother's eyes turn red and he doesn't even notice the pain that usually comes from staring at a screen for so long. I guess kids don't feel it at this age and he's getting used to it, which I worry, but when I was his age, whenever I would feel dizzy or experience "head cramps" I stopped playing on the computer.

I'm going to see if I can find a lock on his computer. Also, I've told him about a gaming-schedule that he had to follow: play every other day. Well, he does follow that plan but he abuses his time, like he plays for 3 hours straight in one day for example. Not all the time, though. Most of the time, one of us in the family tries to pry his little fingers off the keyboard by yelling and/or disciplining him (hitting, ex.). He almost always ends up crying and says the same thing, "I'm turning it off!"I hate doing that, but my brother just doesn't get time management.
