<p>I am tired of the argument of “i bought it therefore its mine and i can do what i want with it”. It reminds me of the case where a mom gave an iPhone to her son for xmas that came with a contract made by herself in which it said that she had to know the password, and he had to return it to her at 7:30 every night. I am 19 years old and yes, my generation sometimes does things behind our parents back… as has every other generation in history. Don’t tell me that people in past decades take the car when their parents were out of town or throw house parties. Don’t tell me people in other generations never snuck out of the house. Don’t tell me that you didn’t prank call people or do things your parents wouldn’t approve of in general. As is obvious by the parents stalking their kids, technology is a double edged that can be used irresponsibly by the kids and the parents. i think that instead of trying to be all over their kids lives, parents should give their child a laptop or phone when they feel they are ready to use it correctly, and then TRUST that they will. What kind of crappy person gives a gift but says i bought it so it is mine and i can do what i want with it? Thats teaching the kid a bad lesson about being controlling and lack of trust.</p>
