Do any of you have guidelines about TV/video etc. during the school week? My 13 yr. old is self motivated, comes home, does her homework. My 16 yr. old procrastinates to the point where I literally want to tear my hair out, watching TV “later, later” etc. My husband says we should say No TV on weeknights but that’s not fair to the younger one who has her act together. What do you think? Last year he got his homework done but not as completely or thoroughly as if he’d stsrted earlier in the evening. He basically runs out of gas.
