A boy from my school asks me every day if I should play Minecraft, CS GO or something else with him. I'm also often called by others.
But my mother says they're all addicted to gambling, like the ones on the internet that you can't do anything with. Me with those meetings I may not.
Is it okay for me to forbid this? How do you like that?
Incidentally, I'm 15 and have really good grades (average: 2.4).
This is not the first time that you complain about your mother but I believe you
They are students from your school and real joy. Actually, you are allowed to play together. Your mother has something against Internet and stuff. And that does not even allow them to visit or meet. You feel like you're in jail. You even got a good score.
It's not OK that she forbids you. Your mother has already thrown your PC three times and I assume that you have paid your PC yourself. Actually, I would see it as property damage but we will come to that later.
Since you're 15 years old you probably know where to go if it's too hard for you.
Just do it secretly. It can't get worse.
P.S: this question is a bit personal but would you call your mother a Raven mother and do you hate her? You do not have to answer it
Basically, we find it ok that you listen to what the mother says, as long as you are not yet grown up. Because mothers are generally smart women and are usually right (Rule # 1).
If you disagree with this, because you believe you lack the appropriate expertise, talk to her and share your expertise with her.
Either she understands and gives in or rule number one comes into force.
Just do it secretly. It can't get worse.
She is 24/7 at home, that will not work.

So I do not like to do my mother. ^^
You do not have to make it secret. It is important that you resist. Otherwise, your mother believes she is right. That's not her.
She thinks she's always right… Or she believes everything about RTL.
I would not follow Rule Number 1 if it forces me to socially seal myself from all my friends, which at best would leave me a lonely childhood or even be bullied. Mothers are human, too, and there are many idiots among men with stupid prejudices that every gambler is addicted and can't lead a decent life.
Your mother may not forbid you any external contacts, that is part of the normal development.
Please go to the youth welfare office.
A mother is required by law to educate her child according to age and self-reliance.
Would such a supposed raven mother react just as well, if he wants to play soccer games with his friends or go cycling or climbing together…
I do not think so.
Rule No. 1 has its raison d'être.
It depends on the context.
And what is worse about playing together than on a bike ride?
Oh,
If this was an attempt to tempt me into an angry appeal against EgoShooter, then he failed.
I have nothing against common games on the PC.
But a common bike ride I consider much "useful".
Both in the physical sense, as well as in the sense of the development of his social contacts.
But it is not. Playing together promotes as many aspects as common sport. For example, teamwork, collusion, hand-eye coordination, reaction time, creativity etc. Pp.
Yes. It does.
That does a decent football game as well.
Correctly.
But I always thought that leisure activities are mostly fun. And if he and his colleagues have fun playing the common Minecraft, I do not see the problem. 😉
Is not a problem.
But we do not know the other leisure activities of the questioner.
We only know his complaints about his mom's behavior.
And without further information, I refer to Rule No.1
Which, by the way, has proven its worth in the education of my two children. If in doubt, do what Mama says. Point.
Teach them a better way.
I think you can go to the youth welfare office?
