Still, he needs balance. Take time out of every day to do something more productive than WoW. Being good at WoW won't mean shit 5 years down the road. Creating and reinforcing friendships now could mean all the difference to you 5 years down the road.

It's hard to balance WoW with life.
Other games, sure. WoW is too much of a time sink.
I can play Baldur's gate for 30 minutes or less, save my game, and go do what I need to do, come back later and finish whatever I want to do. You can't do that in WoW, especially if you raid.
The main problem I had with raiding was, I had to plan 4 hours out of my life to play a video game. And these 4 hours had to be consecutive.
I get home ~5:30, raid at ~6:00, finish ~10:00 or later, and it's time for bed.
So, anything I needed to do in that time doesn't get done, I grab fast food for dinner(3 nights in a row.) My health started deteriorating, and I started having to catch up on shit.
I can spare 4 hours to play video games, but not 4 consecutive hours. I have things I need to do.
