You all know how I am and my take on certain things. I’m specifically referring to “kids”. I’m an old school parent and until the kid/child/teen is 18 years of age, privacy, for the most part, does NOT exist.
I am responsible for the child from infancy to 18 and I will trust the child until I have a reason not to. With that being said, that doesn’t mean that I won’t check on him or her on occasion, especially during the teen years when they tend to think they’re smarter than the parent.
Now in regard to Rebekkah121’s comments, there’s a thin line between “spying” and “monitoring”. Would you spy on a boyfriend or spouse if you suspected that he was being unfaithful? When you leave your house for an extended period of time, do you ask neighbors to keep watch over it or do you have cameras all over the place in which you can monitor or spy from afar?
I know I’m poking the bear here....(laughing)....but it’s all for conversation...
