We bought PSPs each for my 3 nephews, however i think they ahve been addicted to it. They almost play the whole day, so one time I hid those PSPs but they cried the whole day. how could I divert their attention?

I realize you already choose a best response but I felt I wanted to give my two cents as well. I would limit there use to only a hour a day. Or maybe have them do chores and earn the time they use on the PSPs. See those games do help people devolpe skills but they are very addicting and there is more to learn than computer and or games. This is what I have done with my daughter recently because she became addicted to her playstation2 and her gamecube. I do not mind her playing them but there is a time and place for everything. I hope this helps good luck and hapy mylotting.

You should 't give in to their crying. It's okay to let them cry as that won't kill them & they'll know that crying is not the way to manipulate & trying to get things done their way. Spare the rod & spoil the child. You can cut down their playing hours or give them a curfew or something like that.

Almost all the kids are like that only. Even i am addicted to computer games what to do i have no option. PSP's are better than computer because they offer high graphics than a ordinary computer so naturally everyone will like it.
