OP: If you’re going to go the route of making an explicit agreement about expectations – minimum study times, etc – IMO you should also put an upper limit on game time. If I asked my D to commit to doing a favorite activity “only after schoolwork is done,” she’d find the loopholes so fast my head would spin. Telling your S that he can only game for, say, an hour a day not only removes the incentive to rush through homework, but also begins to break the habit.
