I'm going to make a provocative suggestion. The only thing these parents did wrong was limiting Trevor's Fortnite time.
I'm not saying it would have made the difference or any such awful thing. But video games can be a nice time-killer when life is being shitty and you need a way to just... get through it.
If your kid is suffering and nothing you're doing is working and he's self-medicating... maybe it's working. Not everything kids do for themselves is some vice that you have to protect them from.
- JCharante 5y agoAgreed, video games got me into adulthood. And I didn't turn into an addict and I picked up some valuable skills from it.
- Gigachad 5y agoWhen I was young I had a period of depression for no real reason. The thing that helped me most was binge watching Myth-busters. Like hours at a time. Thankfully I was feeling better before I made it to the end of the series. While watching it I’d feel much better and usually feel better after as well.
