I feel like we have the exact same situation/kid. The video games all day, emotional/educational concerns, the laziness, the weird noises with his online friends drives me insane, feeling like both parents have failed him (which I hold resentment around that). Also Am waiting for the day he decides he no longer wants to come over, which makes me feel like a terrible person to feel that way. It’s so hard. I as well have tried to just let go and look the other way but that also does not feel great having to do that in your own house. The times I have tried to suggest things it also has lead to fights and defensiveness with his father. Hang in there, you’re not alone.
