aspergers, obsessions and parents who don't communicate...HELP!!

stepmumtroubles

I have a 5 year old step son who has an obsession with plants vs zombies. His mother was told by the health visitor (apparently) that he shouldn't be playing this game, during a time that she couldn't provide the game for him. Now that she can she has gone and bought him a tablet for Christmas which will give him unlimited access to his obsession. He will literally play this game from the minute he wakes up until the minute he goes to sleep. My husband (his father) just doesn't seem to say anything even though he says to me that he sees it as an issue. My step son seems to have now taken a step backwards with his behaviours and obsessions and as the step mother (and the person who made them aware that there might be an issue with autism) my opinion means nothing and it's so frustrating to have to deal with this especially being pregnant myself. Is there any one in a similar situation to me? Or any one who can advise me on something to do?!
