My child aged 17 years is studying in 12th science in a convent school, since last 2-3 months he is addicted to a mobile game named pub g, he is playing this game on mobile about 6 to 8 hours daily in night and also in day time whenever he gets opportunity to do so. Since last 4 years he has a tendency to get addicted to various things which is distracting his studies and well being. Last 2 years he was addicted to billiards game and spent hours in pool club, some how we took him out of pool club and now this year he has taken to pub g.Till 9th & 10th he was a good student and scored 70% marks in 10th std but after 10th he has slipped badly and passed 11th on border line. But this year in 12th he has not even started his studies and only 2-3 months are remaining for board exams. We have tried every possible steps such as not recharge internet or take away his mobile, even principal and class teacher of his school has counselled him but in vain. I have tried to counsel him with my family and friends also but without any success. His behaviour has also degraded poorly, and he is not even doing his daily routine regularly, not interacting with family, friends and has also having dietary problems. One of the main issues is that he never responds to us when we ask or explain him about healthy living style. Sir I am fearing that this may grow into some disorder. Sir 2 years back I had tried and took him to a wel known psychiatrist in mumbai, but my son refused to take the prescribed medicines and also did not agree for counselling after medication. Sir please suggest what to do?
