Help with SS (6)

I don't know how much longer I can deal with SS...

BM is a B-U-M! She is SUCH a dead beat mom who skates by by letting SS do/say/etc. anything he wants. It is making it SO difficult when he's at our house (his primary home). Especially now that BM doesn't get to seem him very often, his freedom to roam over there is escallating. Now he comes home and tells us he wants to be over there and that he has no fun at our house. What I really want to say is, tough luck you're mom's a POS..but obviously can't. He is OBSESSED with video games. BM doesn't work, instead posts video ads online to try and get money. Now SS has been watching video game walkthrus online (since that's what mom does) ALL DAY at her house. You cannot have a conversation with him. His conversations consist of: "on level 3 part 2 of so and so walk thru this happens". He makes a reference like that for EVERYTHING you say to him. It's impossible to have a conversation with him. When he's at our house, all he wants to do is 1)sit in front of the tv, 2) sit in front of a videogame/ds, 3) sit in front of his leappad, or 4) sit in front of the computer and watch these STUPID walk thrus. He told me the other day that's what he wants to do when he gets older.... REALLY!?! What about being a firefighter or astronault or something other then an old man who sits at home and video tapes himself playing video games.. He has limitations of the amounts of screen time he gets each day at our house...but each time we have to limit him he either mopes around or nags at us to entertain him....

Someone please help with ideas as to how to handle this!?! I'm going to loose my mind!!!!
