She's in classes for game development. The younger two are as well.

She needs to stay on task. The younger two have no problem getting up and getting done with their school work each day, but the 17 year old has always been problematic. We found out she was failing a few classes last year and it turned out that while she was in her teacher led classes she was screwing around on FB and whatnot and not paying attention.

The kids have set hours for "free time" on their computers, hers is longer. However she's been found to "forget" to put up her devices and sit on them all night. I found her in possession of her older sister's laptop one night a couple of years ago and when we checked it's history we found that she had been on it the night before as late as 4am.

Even recently, the oldest sometimes leaves her laptop and it always falls into her hands and she's on it all night.
