So here's the thing. I am 14 year old boy who really enjoys gaming I especially take Smash Bros. really seriously. I've just recently started making money on my own since I want to get Splatoon. My dad most of the time says that videogames are taking over my life, he won't even let me play unless it's Saturday/Sunday. My mom says that I am too lazy and I should do something with my life that videogames just make me rot. My grades average from B to A which means that definetly videogames are not rotting my brain. Mom keeps saying that I'm gonna get fat, but I weigh like 115 pounds. (Boniest kid everywhere lmao)
Whenever I ask my dad if I could play mid-week he always says that videogames are becoming a vice and that I should watch movies. I always answer him telling that there's no difference between watching a movie and playing VGs only that VGs are actually interactive. "But films are art." He says. "VGs are too."
If I get any grade below A-, he won't let me play for that weekend. So for example, if I get two Bs then no games for two
weekends. BUT if I get two Cs then no games for a month. Imo that's really unfair, and if I was in his position I would ground my kid only if he got anything below a B-
So the question is, how can I convince my dad to let me play videogames?
I need a good statement because my father is really hard to convince.
Thanks in advance! :B
