So I'm not saying this to be rude but they also left you alone to where you got your girlfriend pregnant and skipped a ton of school so if anything, you are just reassuring me that I would be making the right choice if I ever choose to spy on my kids lol

well none of that really has to do with the computer or phone history tho. not like you would find that. i got grounded for a month for skipping cuz they found out anyways

Yeah but when I say spy I don't just mean computer or phone. I have no issues following her to see if she really is where she should be. And I'm sure you texted or Fb messaged your gf plans to meet up alone so you were able to have sex, so going through computer/phone would help.

Quoting MX23:" no way. i wouldnt wanna get spyed on so i would never spy. every1 has a privacy right. even if my parents ... [snip!] ... right. even if my parents do spy i doubt they would find anything cuz i delete all emails and txts and clear browser history."

You sound young.

Quoting MX23:" yeah i did tell them as soon as they got home. well maybe they do but dont think they would find much. ... [snip!] ... never really mentioned it to me if they do. i only got caught with something once but thats cuz i left something in my car."

You come on here a lot and post.

Every post of his screams immaturity. He has a LOT of growing up to do, and I hope he does it soon for the sake of his child. Seriously, "Ill just delete the history and they wont find anything" crap is idiotic.
Have your own laptop? That I bet your parents paid for. I bet they pay for the internet too. And they pay for the electricity to power that precious laptop. You have a LOT of growing up to do.

  really?

im working on making better decisions now. i know its important.i made some bad decisions in the past

of course they bought the laptop but what parent hasnt. i needed it for school.and yeah i live at home so they pay internet and electricity but why would i pay that now

It just depends on the child. If my kid has never given me a reason to question them, then I wouldn't- BUT, we also don't do things the same in our house as other people do. We don't allow computers with internet access in bedrooms. WE don't even have a computer in our bedroom, there will be a family / community area where they will be allowed to use the internet. I wouldn't read their emails or texts messages, though - but again, we don't plan on just handing over a cell phone when they turn 10, either, like a lot of other people do.

No, I would not. My parents did it to me and I hated it. They never sat down to ask me anything, instead they would go through my computer or my journal. I began getting grounded for unknown reasons all the time. As it turned it out I was getting grounded for venting. The only time I could imagine myself spying on my child is if I believed they were talking to a perv online.
