vastsarah_2

Hi ,please help me out ,my son aged 14 has aspergers and adhd
plus problems sleeping.
What helps is having the telly on lately though i have caught him
playing on the xbox360 late into the early hours.
The xbox dosnt help with his sleep although the telly dose.
He is telling me when i switch off the internet when catching him
the xbox get messed up?
Is this true he dosent always tell me the truth.

p.s this might not seam money saving but it would be if i had to get another xbox

Hey Sarah,

turning off the internet will only "mess it up" if he's playing people online. It won't damage the console though. The easiest way to stop him from playing it (if that's what you want to do) is to take the controllers away.

I was diagnosed with Asperger's a few years ago, and I'm sure my parents will tell you it was hard when I was growing up sometimes.

I can confirm what marty is saying, you cant damage the console just by turning the internet off, if you take the controllers then he cant play on it,

but im sure he will find a way around he normanly dose.

I was going to suggest taking the power cable but he could borrow one of those too, so why dont you take the console out of his room when he goes to bed? It's just two cables you have to unplug.
