I really hate it, they always ask me who's that. It always invade my privacy.. So, I want to know people's opinions.

You know privacy is something most of us cherish but seriously, unless one's parents are fanatically unreasonable there really shouldn't be anything to hide.

I don't mind. There's nothing for me to hide, unless I'm trying to talk privately with someone. I prefer the conversations staying private, so that's when I ask the person to go somewhere else for a little bit.

If my parents want to watch what i'm doing on the computer, they have to go find their glasses, but them on and come back and say "Ooo, what's that?"

By this stage it's fairly easy to click minimize and answer "Looking at penguins" which is my background and for them to go "Awk that's nice."

Good thing they don't even know where the power button is.

lol, maybe I should say that to my parents. They know I love penguins and they understand.

My parents don't, and never have, watched me on my computer, so no.

They never WATCH me, like actualy stare at what i'm doing, they might watch me for 5 seconds then walk away or ask me what i'm doing, then I tell them. But what annoys me is when I'm talking to someone online they will start asking questions as if I'm talking to a stalker or something, then it's worse if I forget to mute the mic and the person on the other end hears it all.

It's awkward when I'm watching a movie that has...unsuitable content (ex. Hangover)... and my mom is watching it with me... you can probably guess why too.

Haha I had that problem too, but not because of the unsuitable content, it's that fact that to them it's so stupid of a movie that they radiate their dislike.

The simple answer is yes. I think my brother does it more then my parents though. He always comes up to me and asks what are you doing and then rips the laptop out of my hands.

I don't like it when I'm watching t.v and my parents always come around and see what I'm watching and they get mad at me cuz they think I'm too young to be watching Futurama, Family Guy, and American Dad and my parents think i'm too immature to watch these cartoons, I disagree, I think being 14 is well old enough to watch Family Guy and American Dad.
