(NAPSI)-After months of being nudged, cajoled and begged, you finally gave in and bought your teenager a high-priced game system. His face all flushed with excitement, he couldn't wait to take it to his friend's house for the first time.

And with a look of horror on your face, you soon received the bad news: "Mom, I think I lost my PSP!"

Or, equally horrifying: "Mom, Tommy borrowed my new Halo 3 game, and now he won't give it back."

Yes, as every parent can attest to, the above scenario is worse than the stock market crash of 1929 and an entire screening of "Gigli" combined.

While your kids have no concept of money, you do-and you hate to see it evaporate before your very eyes. So to avoid arguing with your teen and losing your mind (because we all know how effective arguing with a teenager can be), you're going to need to develop a prevention ahead of time.

That's where Stuck On You figures in. The company, which manufactures fun, colorful labeling products, has some common-sense strategies for keeping gamer gear on hand-and for keeping kids honest about what belongs to whom.

"Labeling gaming equipment will not only help ensure that items return home, it will also help prevent conflicts," says Amy Lipton, CEO of Stuck On You.

"I know my own kids are constantly bringing games to their friends' houses, and they used to get into conflicts with each other about which controller belongs to whom-all kinds of issues like that. Labeling everything helps prevent both the losses and the endless debates."

While the company's products allow young people to organize a wide range of their belongings, particularly useful for protecting gaming gear are its peel-and-stick Vinyl Labels.

They come personalized by name and design in a variety of fun shapes and sizes, and also have the advantage of being both waterproof and UV-resistant. Prices range $18.95 to $21.50, depending on pack style.
