I'm not saying i'm an enlightened genius or anything but he literally spends all his free time watching youtube shorts - he doesn't even watch youtube videos, tv shows, movies. He doesn't know how to google information except to cheat in school, on his ipad when i open the browser it usually shows the last activity was months ago. He has no interests, no friends (they kind of tolerate him at school but it doesn't go beyond having somewhere to sit and say tiktok slogans at lunch), no opinions, nothing. - basically a shell of a human being. Obviously this kind of thing develops with age but I remember when I was in 9th grade I was into things? everyone was - it was just the default that at the very least you would like a tv series or movie or something.
He doesn't even act like a young person, the way he moves is very sluggish, he speaks slowly, and just has 0 energy or vigor for life. If anything like an 80 year old, but ive seen retirement home patients Academically he does fine enough, high average - but he has an insane ego complex about being able to multiply better after daily tutoring compared to the school's crack babies.
every week or so I engage him in conversation and try to get him to do anything. You should watch a movie or play a video game instead of spending 12 hours on the couch watching tiktoks and eating chips - you know those things are why you're fat and the reason why you're comatose on the couch? - it's not aggressive and he always agrees with me, but then I offer to help him and he just doesn't have any desire to change. Yeah, if I was healthy and i would have more energy and a better life but skibbity! i get that this has to come from within but i would kill to have someone tell me everything I know nowadays at his age. It's not normal at all.
I kind of suspect that he's just agreeing because i'm saying things with confidence because it seems like he literally doesn't think - like his brain is empty. at least enough to where i am more aware of his cognitive processes than he is. he can't keep 2 things in his head at once. If i say x, he responds with y. Then I say z. He responds with something I answered with x in the first place, and this goes on forever. Pretty much what you'd expect from being an I-pad kid who doesn't ever have (real) conversations, watch long form content, read, etc.
is there anything I can do about this?
