Is this stupid to you?
Ok, My friend is 16, his brother is 15, and neither one of them are allowed to have their own email addresses. If I want to send anything to them, I have to send it to their mother’s address. I don’t want to do that… who would?
I tried discussing it over the phone with her, but that was useless.
They aren’t babies! Sure, they are a little immature, but they aren’t jerks, so they aren’t going to be emailing everyone under the sun… I don’t know… I just think it’s stupid. Thoughts/suggestions?
Some parents are just TOO overprotective and then they wonder why their children end up drop outs and go all strange as soon as they get a small taste of responsibility. Unfortunately their is nothing you can do about it…I would spam her though. lol. nothing rude, maybe she’ll relent.
wow…thts so gay hmm… maybe if they could go somewhere else on a computer like at a family members or friends house they could create one and you guys could send e-mails or have you guys tried writing notes??
Some mothers are a little over-protective, and though it may seem silly to everyone else, she’s only doing what she thinks is necessary to keep her children safe.
All my children have email addresses, but when it comes to my ten year old, I make sure I have access to her email. It’s a parent’s responsibility to keep informed on what the kids are doing, especially in this dangerous tech-age.
what I think you should do, is make an email for them. and give them the info, like the address and password, so that they can go on it themselves and his mom will never know about it lol. besides, why would you ask your mom to have an email? (if thats the case) haa idkk but thats my suggestion.
but yeahh it is kinda dumb. but I sorta see their mom’s point.
QUEER
QUEER
wow…thats over protective…r
Wow, I just don’t uderstand some of you. Yes, it’s a little bit of overprotection, but WHY DO YOU CARE whether or not they have separate email adresses?? Do you wanna send them stuff their mom would be ticked off by or something? Some of my friends happen to be in this situation, actually. They can get their own addresses when they turn 18, ok? Be patient! She’s just trying to protect them from themselves (you DID mention they were immature…)! And to all you people who keep saying to help them get emails behind their mom’s back, think of it this way…won’t she find out? I doubt your friends would mask your involvement…There’s just too many things that can go wrong! Again, WHY DOES THIS MATTER TO YOU, ANYWAY?! It’s not YOUR email we’re talking about!
yeah that is a bit overproteccted but I guess she is just looking out for them
I don’t think it is stupid. I think it is great to see that a parent is making sure what her children do and don’t see online, Hey when they are 18 they can do what ever they want, until then, if you are under there roof it is there rules.
yeah!! sometimes I wish my parents would take control of me like that.. actually I really do.. I feel bad because I can do all this stuff, I feel like they don’t care.. so I pretty much control myself to what I think is best for my age.. I don’t know.. I’m turning 16 tomorrow and I wish I was turning 5… I miss people telling me what’s right from wrong cause they don’t seem to help anymore.. :( I think it’s good what they’re doing.
They are minors - and they are parents, who should be respected because bottom line: parents call and the right thing to do - before you know it, it’ll be your turn…Take care !!
