I had the same problem when I first got email..... we all shared a computer and we used outlook express... and dial up
 ... so sometimes, while I was at school and Mom went online, she'd download my email for me. And sometimes she'd look through it. (it really threw her off when in the middle of an email a friend would go "HI MELANIE'S MOM!!!")Eventually I moved onto my own laptop and DSL. She still knows the password I use. But I've been so long without giving her a reason to check that she just doesn't any more. But yes, clearing history and cookies? oh yeah

My parents don't do that, I can't imagine how much you'd love to have privacy.

lol that's sad... how'd she find your password to your email? and she's mad that you changed your password? lol. she shouldnt be cause she shouldnt look at people's privacy, i mean how would she feel if her own daughter lookover her mom's privacy stuff.
my mom doesnt really know how to use the computer, so she doesnt anything about my stuff.. like my xanga and my password. neither my dad... heh my password is hard to guess hehe cause it has a lot of numbers. |

whoa, no way. Nothing to THAT extreme. I would hate it if my mom logged onto my email and read everything, and got on my xanga and read everythan. That's too much..Well i guess you can say that she cares enough to know whats going on in ur life. But still...no privacy. ah! as a teen you need privacy lol. When i was younger and we had aol, my mom used to not let me get online unless she signed me on. I hated that, aol used to kick me off all the time, so it was a pain calling her back over to re-sign me on. lol i remember those days

Omg, that is horrible. One thing I hate is being deprived of my privacy. You could go into your Internet Options and if you want it, I can tell you in detail. There is an option where your Temporary Internet Files and URL's in the address bar are automatically deleted when you close the browser. It can be inconvenient sometimes. -_-

Yeah, basically.
I'm not allowed to have a computer in my own room anymore. My brother found out about my Myspace and told my mom to piss me off. She screamed at me for days. I was grounded a few days, but I put it back up after she cooled down. I just delete the history and she hasn't found out about it since.

My mother used to read my xanga's. It pissed me off. And she better have stopped. Usually I check history after she gets off the computer, and I haven't seen it recently. (she doesn't know enough about computers to know what history is)

Gosh, my parents are evil.
 Supposedly, they tried to threaten me by cutting off the internet and was all like "What is createblog? Get off there or you might get raped!!" And I was like, "WTF?! Its just a forum." Then they eventually found out my password(by sticking up a camera in my ceiling to see whats my password), so then I had to change my password.  My parents are too nosy.

no. but you should tell your mom. that you deserve your privacy
 It's just wrong. Start going through her stuff. see how she likes it. I know that isnt exactly the way to "approach" it but hey...ya got to do, what ya got to do

No, thankfully my parents don't try to track me on the 'net. They know I have a xanga, but I don't believe they read it. If they do, my important stuff is written in protected posts, so I should be okay.

my dad likes to read my aim convos when i forget to close them. argh.
i don't use email, and they wouldn't know my password. >>;; and they don't mind me having a xanga why would your mom get mad if you changed your password? it's YOUR xanga, after all. and it's not like you're doing anything bad online (are you? lol) |
