well not to be rude, but SHE paid for the computer and SHE pays for your internet service.....so she can do whatever she wants. you shouldnt be complaining and just feel lucky that she gave you your own computer.
 
old. For parents. NOT a rant.? Ok, this is for all the parents that want to know about what will happen to a kid if you do certain things, most 14 year olds won't tell you. but ill tell you one thing with the internet.

Heres the story.

My mom got me a laptop.
she said she trusted me.
but then i figured out that 2 weeks after i got my laptop, it was super slow.
i figured out that my mom had been on it browsing through my internet history (which she never admitted to. she said that she trusted me and would never do that.), and so forth, and somehow ended up getting a virus, which eventually wiped my hard drive. (which she blamed on me, and i got in trouble for.)
so we had to reset my computer. (which was bad because i had some pictures from the vacation that we had which were irreplaceable.)

So obviously my mother doesn't know anything about computers.
(i used to go on hers, i know a lot.)

So when i go through the process of reseting my computer. i put a password on it, so she can't get on and mess something else up.

This was actually a test to see if she didn't trust me, and got on my computer, and SHE was the one that got the virus...

It was successful, because the next day, she went off screaming that i put a password on there, and did the same tired catch phrases.

"life isn't fair"
"I'm the adult and you're the child."
"you're just a kid."
"what i says goes"
"if you live in my house, you do what i say"

etc..etc... not a single word was original.

but eventually she got over it, and said she would trust me for real.

So everything was good.

And so was i.
I never EVER got onto anything interactive, and NEVER looked at Dirty videos.

but a few weeks later, she accuses me of being on chatrooms, porn, forums etc.

and she kept accusing me over and over until eventually she just grounded me for doing something she didn't even know i did. (which i didn't.)

so then pretty much every 1 - 2 months she goes off and grounds me.

So i think to myself...
"hmm, getting on chatrooms, and other interactive sites are fun and just so awesome, but im not doing it because she doesn't think that i can keep anonymous. and she'll punish me.
but if im going to get punished for doing it either way, i might as well do it."

so now i AM on chatrooms, forums, youtube, here, and sometimes porn.

I wasn't before, but my mom's over reacting power tripping over protectiveness etc. has pushed me into doing it.

For all of the parents out there, please, i beg of you, do not accuse your kids and do this to your kids like my mother did me, or the same thing will happen. i guarantee it.

Thank you for your time and feel free to use the answer feature to give your commentary.
 
yep. i used to do the same thing when i was younger. my mom would accuse me of shit i never did and it just made me wanna go do it just so i could "prove her right". y not? if i'm gonna get the punishment, might as well enjoy the crime
 
Are you typing this in the hope that your mum will go through your history again and read it? I see no other purpose for you posting this here. I highly doubt 14 year olds look at porn just to spite their mum.
 
If she was browsing YOUR history, how did SHE get the virus? You were already on those sites. They don't get you the second time you log on. Think about it.
And your mom bought this lap top for you?
Your mom should be screening what you are doing. don't you watch TV? Don't you see how freaks trick you into giving info? Don't tell me you are to smart for all that, theses pervs are alot smarter than you.
And don't blame your mom for what you are searching. You are curious, its natural, but its YOUR choice. She wasn't using reverse psychology on you.
 
A child of mine would not password protect a laptop that I bought them , and in MY house or it would get taken away.
You need slapped.
 
I remember being where you are.

On the other hand, you probably are the one who gave yourself a virus, and I dont think unmonitored internet is a good idea. My cousin does the same thing. He swears up and down that he doesnt go to any places that have viruses and cant figure out how he gets them, but when I look pull up the pages he says he visits, they are freaking riddled with viruses. Some of the sites he told me, my virus check wont even let me load. You can get viruses super super easy. You need to have a good anti virus on your computer to prevent that, and you should always back up on disk anything that is going to hurt loosing.

I never would have claimed I trusted you to begin with and would have been upfront that I was going to monitor your usuage.
