I’ve suggested he join a gym, rock climbing, train for a marathon, hiking, camping. None of this stuff seems to out weigh video games. He’s 17 and just wants to play video games or go to amusement parks. Amusement parks are a plus actually. At least he’s out doors getting fresh air. What other things could I suggest? I was never like this as a child. You couldn’t keep me indoors so I’m having trouble relating.

I welcome all ideas except hunting. I don’t like the idea of him playing around with guns.
I’ve been trying for years now to help him. This is a video generation and very habit forming. when he meets up with his friends all they talk about are video games
He does work though. Thank goodness that gets him out a little
