Nimrod, sounds like you don't trust yourself in that last part of your post. I'm confident that isn't the case with you, it just seems extreme.

I see where nimrod is coming from completely. If you know you will get caught or have a big chance at getting caught then you are very very unlikely to do it. Atleast that's what i think he is saying. Like i said before i completely understand why parents do it but when i was that age i really didn't. Now I'm not in that situation yet but i will probably say that when i have a kid that i will probably do the same thing. But i was jist putting in a point from the other side of things.

Check it. The number one influence on teenagers is the other kids they associate with. I believe it is their friends but I would put the media pretty close to #1 with their friends.

I was a sneaky as crap teenager, my daughter is me made over, sooooo with that being said, I check. But as much as I Trust her, I dont trust other kids. Especially with some of the things that I already know about them.

Nimrod, sounds like you don't trust yourself in that last part of your post. I'm confident that isn't the case with you, it just seems extreme. Then you read it right. Just cuz I'm in ministry doesn't mean there aren't days when I don't feel like doing right. That's why I put accountability checks in place. And that's what I believe we should do for our kids as well.

Ive got 2 out of 3 boys still at home 17 and 18. I was that age and I know what they are going thru and even though they were all raised in church and by strict hands. I dont want a pi&&ed off father at my door. I know they act different around us then with their friends. I tell them I will check phones and all other social media as I see fit.

I agree with most as I will check her text and FB acct as we feel the need, but I also feel as she is maturing as a women she still need some privacy. I don't wont to be that over bearing parent.

I think if you suddenly start demanding to see texts/Facebook etc of a 13, 14, 15 etc... year old it can be shocking to the kid. Start very young and make it just part of normal life. Mom/Dad has access to their electronic media....its just the way it is.
