Answer 1

i  understand why you dont let him borrow ur ipod

..i mean i let my brother borrow my ipod but his friend sold it

so the best thing he can do is read

he should try to find a really good book(theres plenty out there)

i hate reading but i really got into this one book called

"A Million Little Pieces" and i loved that book

just tell him to give books another chance:)

Answer 2

sleep

Answer 3

Since music players are cheap now, you could get just a regular mp3 player - I bought mine for less then $20...Or a handheld video game - Nintendo DS sells for less then $150...Pawn shops usually sell other handhelds for pretty cheap...

Answer 4

well maybe buy him a cheaper mp3 player, he can bring magazines, sleep, try talking to people around him, he can bring cross word puzzles, text on his phone if he has one.

Answer 5

maybe get him a phone. to text his friends and more

Answer 6

He's 16 and doesn't like reading?  That's kind of rough.  He's too old for license plate games or things like that.  

What about word seaches or something?  I'm guessing he wouldn't care for crossword puzzles.  

And, really, he should talk to a librarian--there are things he'd probably love to read if he'd give them a try.  Even magazines about Nascar or sports or whatever he might be into would help pass the time.  

That, or look out the window and observe things. Even watch people in the other cars.  He could imagine stories about what they're doing, where they're going, give them funny names, etc.

Answer 7

Tell him to get himself an iPod, at least a shuffle. Shuffles are about 80 bucks and they're awesome.

He could also get a puzzle book, like Sudoku. Sudoku is scarily addicting once you start.

There's also one more thing he might love. For about 13-15 bucks, depending where you are, you can get a portable Guitar Hero.

Answer 10
