1. I realize I have no ability to accurately gauge how long I've played
because I lose track to time. Therefore, when my mom or dad tell me time's
up, I won't respond with, "What!? But I've only been on for a few minutes! I
'm about to get to the next level! Let me just throw myself off this cliff!
It'll only take one minute! I promise!"
2. I will keep track of how long I play by using a timer that my parents
provide.
3. I won't constantly ask if I can play video games after my parent tells me
no.
4. If told no by one parent, I won't go ask the other parent who doesn't
know what the first parent said.
5. If told no, I will not respond with, "Why?"
6. I won't compare how long my sibling has played with how long I've played.
For example, "But he has gotten so much more screen time than me" will
result in an automatic reduction in play by ten minutes the next time I play.
....
8. I'll pause the game within one minute after being told my time is up. If
I don't comply with this rule, I understand that my parent will turn off the
screen so that any unsaved progress I lose will be because of my actions,
not because my mom turned off the screen.
...
10. I won't buy videos or apps without my parents' explicit permission. If I
violate this rule, I understand that I'll be forbidden to play for the next
week without exception and that the amount of the charge will be deducted
from my savings account or allowance.
11. I won't play games or visit websites that my parents have forbidden. If
I do, I understand that I'm in breach of contract and my parents can
restrict my technology access until they believe I have shown I can respect
their terms.
...
13. I understand that if my grades slip, my game time may be lessened or
revoked to make way for more study. Reinstatement of normal gaming will be
based solely upon my parents' review of my progress and/or effort in regard
to my education.
