How do we get him to move back to his bedroom? He sleeps on the sofa because of the TV and XBox and says he prefers it.
 
Be firm with him and tell him that the lounge is just that, not a bedroom. He should have set times for using the Xbox and watching TV, sounds as though he spends far too much time with both of them. I wouldn't have my son sleeping on the sofa, not a chance.
 
hiya, only one thing to do. kick is bum upstairs, and tell him to watch it in is bedroom.even if you have to buy him his own tv.its worth it to get him of the sofa.you know what you can get him for christmas now
 
He should have an established bed time. This means that he is to be in bed at a specific time and no TX or Xbox after that time is set. Should he violate this, the TV and the Xbox privileges are taken away for a specific amount of time.

My sons have a bed time of 10:00pm on week nights and weekends its 10:30pm unless they are with friends then there curfew is 10:00pm and lights out at 10:30pm. No TV or PS after 10pm. If they break bed time....the TV and PS are taken up for what I determine. If they argue, the time is more. I do this with my sons vehicles also. If curfew is broken....no car for my determined time. My sons don't like it but they know my house rules and they are to live by those rules.

do not put the tv and xbox in his room ... this kid is hooked on those things and it needs to stop... just tell him you want him sleeping in his room... and if he is on those things from when he wakes up to when he falls asleep you can be mean about it.. otherwise just tell him "its weird just go to your room its there for a reason"

good luck
