Web Paranoid Parents — Page 2

I have no idea who these people are, but I bet you a dime they're closet homosexuals.

My parents, suprisingly, have no qualms about anything I do on the internet. I know that yes, the internet can be a dangerous place, but not everyone is a perverted, old man trying to lure you to the mall.

My parents have never given me any sort of "internet safety" talks. It's great. Actually, I was telling my mother about a very good friend of mine (who I've known over the internet since...late July, I beleive), and she said, "Would you want her to come and visit us?" I jumped up and screamed, "Would I?"

My mom (who isn't technologically advanced at all) knows what message boards are, so I don't have to explain them to her. My dad is an engineer. He uses computers all the time, and I know he knows what message boards are.

As for the "safe" part...I don't publicly post my phone number or home address, so I feel safe. I mean, I have no reason to feel threatened or scared.

my parents don't know about the board. when we first got a computer (in 4th grade i think) w/ internet they were like, you're not allowed to go into chat rooms b/c it's dangerous. they're not very computer savy and i don't know if they know about message boards or how they work or anything. i think i actually mentioned it once and they were like, you dont write anything do you? i told them i just read it, not post. so yea, they pretty much don't know about it.

Really? Your parents are cool.
And they call you Girl. Interesting...

haha I call everyone I know Dude!

I also tend to call my mother Melody (which is her first name) because half the time she's not paying attention and doesn't respond to "mom"
