This week’s videoblog was inspired by a reader question.

A reader emailed me to say that she read my post entitled New Study Finds That Kids Benefit From Playing Video Games and thought that my advice made sense to limit gaming in the household, but she wanted how I personally set rules in my household.

I think it’s no secret that my teenage son plays video games and this reader wanted to know what works in my family in terms of limiting gaming time.

Watch the video below to find out:

• My personal family rules and consequences for gaming
• The 3 most important points to keep in mind when setting your own family gaming guidelines
• The advice I give to all of my private practice clients regarding gaming.

Also, don’t forget to download and print out the technology contracts that I created for readers of the Parenting The Modern Family blog to use.
