lol ... I had a nephew like that .. at around the age of 12 to 15 a few years ago .. I'd be visiting their family, then around 10, he'd yawn, make a big show and say he's going to bed.
What the parents just ignored was that he was lying in bed with his ipad and phone until early, early in the morning watching movies, youtube or tv all night long and getting absolutely no sleep ... wake up like a drunken sailor every morning and not pay attention at school.
The parents didn't care because the kid wasn't bothering them and he stayed quiet in his room ... he could live their by himself on the wifi connection for all they cared. ... high speed internet is a great baby sitter.
There was no internet access in bed kind of thing when I was a teen and I still did the same thing, I just used books and the radio instead.
I did this a few times... with a gameboy/DS
