League of Legends (LoL) Question: How do your parents limit you playing lol?

I don't really have even close problem to this as i am 24 years old, and when i was younger my parents didn't really have power to get me off the computer.

I think the main problem is that your parents want you to learn all the day and when you have a free time they want you to go out to be with friends.

There is nothing wrong with their goal but i think they need to give you to decide what you are doing in your free time after you done your responsibilities.

The best way to do it (not the easiest) is to talk with them and come into an agreement about what are your responsibilities each day/week, and what you will do for being more socialize (because the cure is practice/find the good people), and then what you can do in your free time (computer/TV/ and so on). Make sure you put yourself in a position you can do the dally/weekly tasks and don't over committed, and that you will have tasks and free time alternately in the day so you won't do all the tasks one by one it will be hard for you.

Good luck :D

Before you read DONT FOLOW MY EXAMPLE!!!!!!!!

Hehe, I was not alowed too but I was constantly on PC and tanking punishments for 1-2years, after that I started to use PC for education too and there were less punishments but there were still, now Im at a stage where I won (muahahah) and now they leave me be on PC (they are not mad and they did not give up) but after so mutch time they just adapted to the PC, family members started to get smartphones and now they just dont like when they see me ALL DAY ON PC (I try not to be but because its hard to find friends who are fun for me its hard ;-; )


Note: a game like lol is most fun when you are lurning what means if they limit you you will be all week hyped to play the 2h, when you start to know lol you will be extremly mad and so on "HE IS OP, WHY DID THAT HIT..." and this is the most frustrating part, and after that you wont rage but as every game its not as fun as when you are exploring it (it sill still fun tho), so kind of this is a good thing, atleast how I rememeber I was the happiest person on earth when I was alowed to play a game :D

My parents don't limit me :D

my parents allow me to play as much time as i want

Oh parents.. Mine only allow me to play during weekends too, and when I play at those days, they still keep bugging me. I actually agreed to only playing during weekends, however. My grades aren't pretty enough to say that they are being unreasonable. If you place school first on the other hand, then LoL shouldn't be much of a problem. Proving your priorities can be done simply by scoring high at tests indeed. Show your parents a nice grade list and they'll lose a reason to stop you from gaming :d

I had similar problems, but pretty much what you need to do is study and than make them test you and let them you know you actually did. That's how it works now. I come home from school, study and after they test me I get to do what I want, so try it sometimes, maybe it'll work. :/

Could you find some people at your school who also play League of Legends and go and play over their house or at an internet cafe? That way you're socialising like your parents want AND you get to play LoL :)

Growing up I had a similar experience, though not quite that bad. I was only allowed to play on weekends. For someone who was passionate enough about the game that even after 6 years of non-stop playing he would move on to play the game for a living, obviously only being able to play 3 days out of the week (on top of weekends being the only time I could have a social life out of school too) was not enough, so since my parents were at work all the time I would constantly play after school and finish up before they got home, as well as doing a lot of playing at night while they were in bed (DO NOT RECOMMEND, I HAD TO GET UP AT 6:30 AM EVERY DAY AND THE LACK OF SLEEP WAS INSANE).

In the end I did end up managing to convince them at some point that limiting me was doing more harm than good, but that took years to achieve and it was only in my last year of high school, when I was already 18.

I wish you the best in resolving this situation, I know what it feels like. :(

if you're under age i notice you to not spend a lot fo time playing lol, just play 2-3 match per day and better play aram which is quick games, and don't ever start to be a young flammer its not good for your health and for your attitude because it will destory your future in the real life.

games are meant to be played to have fun but not to rage and to be toxic.

Well, they are limiting me to 3 days per week. I mean if I start after school which is about 17:00 without eating I can play until 22:00. Yeah I know that is a lot. And yes weekends mostly can be played trough by me like for 10 hours.
Eh well I guess I have the option to play at weekends but I actually don't even do it except for when I don't have time during the week. This sums up to like about 15h per week.
I know that it is not imaginable for you but still the only time I get to cheat is when I'm alone at home. It's not that I can't really do it but the fact that if something goes wrong and they notice. AND IT'S RARE TO BE ALONE
I have a brother and a sister 1-2 years of age when I'm almost 16, it's really frustrating. You could call me addicted for sure but I guess the only reason why I play is to relieve stress and because I'm bored. I wouldn't even probably play if not the fact that I like talking to my friend who's online like for 24/7 except school :P.
Don't even try ranked. The most addicting point in league is WINNING NOT HAVING FUN.
But well I guess I can get trough 4th year without even trying to learn again :). It's like the only thing I have to do is doing homework and helping with my sister and brother.

I got to the point where my dad is like DISGUSTED every time he sees me playing. He instantly shifts into a gloomy mood and well yeah, you can guess if his mood is bad enough he'll just plug off the internet connection.

I also could be considered a shy person but this is changing at least after my 15 years of being shy. I love it so much :D. Well I still do have only one friend that I meet up every now and then. But at least at school I could get into the front of a group. Well getting a lot of attention isn't even a good thing in the first place but makes one happy (smoking and alcohol). Eh the shyness had a bad origin and started with the fact that I went to a different country with my parent and couldn't even speak to anyone because I just couldn't. Which then turned into something more agressive towards other people. After some courses with my mother I got rid of it tough, but the shyness retunred (which in the end transformed into me finding joy in relieving my stress in videogames).

Well at the point where my mother was still studying she had a lot of moments where she returned or whatever and just continuously annoyed and shouted at everone just because of a little mistake. This habit got away but still I got to carry it with me (well now I'm permanently stuck with a personality like this). I mean she's a good person but god she is annoying. At school I just learned to not even notice when someone i annoying but if it's someone I have a good relationship with well I will shout in his face to just stfu.

The moment I can't play I just read xianxias or watch anime, altough I don't know if I should recommend it to people with a bad view of the world. Yeah depressed people that think a lot of this trashcan that this world is atm (such as myself altough I can hide it really well).

My first time playing was like really early and my parents just left me to play for like 3 hours in 5 pm. because they needed to go to nightschool and the problem was that the game I found was Star Wars Battlefront 2. They later removed it and I got to play lego games but later found a different one which was worms (Probably not suitable for me either at that time).

Well I'd say the other way they try to restrain me is to give me warnings that: Pc is gonna magically disappear from your room for a year. Well it isn't that their restrictions on me are bad. But their punishments just totally exaggerated. Well not even letting me touch my pc for a year is quite some time. Those punishments really have a lot to do with schools so it's frustrating to get back a bad note. THE FACT WHY IT'S FRUSTRATING IS BECAUSE THEY ARE REALLY SPEAKING THE TRUTH ABOUT WHAT THEY WARN ME ABOUT.

My jail is the hate I can feel for my parents because of their ignorance and inability to adapt to change. "Joy is not money but what you want to do is."-Unknown.
Well I'd say I would be ok with a salary of 3000 Euro. That is because I'm gonna be an informatician of my own accord. Well some people just don't understand that you know how important school is. But not having more money than you need isn't an end of the world either. Either way their bs with it's your future etc. etc. and not getting to decide about it gives me really bad feelings about it.

THANK YOU FOR READING THIS I NEEDED TO SOMEHOW LET IT OUT AFTER STORING IT IN MY BRAIN FOR MY ENTIRE LIFE IT JUST EXPLODED NOW WITH THE START OF ME TYPING IT.
