Hi Mleigh, I don't know if this helps at all, but SS is also a bit of a techie - loves screen stuff, not keen on exercise. We did a few things that really seemed to help with respect to his time on the screen. We limited to a couple of hours a day - and just an hour at a time. This didn't include watching a movie, it was just gaming (Minecraft mostly) time. Also, we sat down with SS and came up with a list of a dozen things that he loved to do with us at home and a dozen things he liked to do by himself at home.

If ever he came off the screen and was looking a bit forlorn, we'd suggest he'd have a look at his list and choose what he wanted to do. I can recall the list included things like - playing with my Lego, Nerf wars, building my train set, reading etc. It seemed to work pretty well.

Hope this helps xx
