I once heard a child safety advocate say, "Kids are clueless about the dangers online. If an adult contacts them with sexual intentions, a 12 year old doesn't know what sex is, so they won't even know what's happening and they won't know enough to end the chat." ...probably one of the most ignorant and clueless perspectives ever. Kids are not stupid and they are often the ones pursuing sex online, but I guess this advocate makes a good living thinking that they're stupid.

I mean- I get why parents want to know everything, but keeping secrets from your parents is part of being a child and having fun. If you are a parent or tutor, have a talk with your child about the dangers of social media and set boundaries. You can't talk to random people and you cannot send inappropriate pictures to ANYONE. But also you, as a parent/tutor, don't check their phone and messages or pictures. Just like you need to trust them, they need to trust you, and by you checking their phone it brakes all the trust from them to you. And also respect your children. They deserve as much respect as you deserve

[@oliviabridges8908]

Exactly, my parents are strict on the no social media rule. This makes it so hard for me to interact with kids my age. It’s annoying when a friend ask me what my snap or insta and stuff is and I have to say I don’t have it. Like bruh just teach me what to look out for and give me a break. My parents be so protective if I text to long they are going to ask to see who I’m texting and what about.🙄

The same people on here throwing the kids deserve privacy are the same people who would be saying throw him in jail or how did you not know when my kid suicidrs or shoots up a school. Permissive parents are a large part of how our society got the way it is. Kids have very limited rights or freedoms until they are of age and hopefully prepared to have them.

[@malathichowlera9187]

Okay so this is something I want to talk to about parents , now if you truly want to know why you should check your kids phone and there's also some advice for teens . Here it is - When their children reach the teen years, many parents wonder why their kids suddenly need privacy. Learn the relationship between privacy and trust, why parents should usually respect their child's privacy and when it's appropriate for parents to snoop. The Link Between Privacy and Trust Privacy issues stem from trust issues. Our teens want to be trusted to do more and more things. They want to be thought of as mature and capable of handling independence. It is wonderful when we can give our teens their space and privacy. Time alone, their diary and conversations with friends are examples of private areas we can offer our teens. Sometimes teens may have private conversations with their siblings that need to be respected as well. Sons may feel more comfortable confiding in their father about certain matters, while daughters may feel more comfortable confiding in their mothers. This is especially the case if romantic relationships or the physiological changes they're experiencing at this time are the subject at hand. Other Reasons Teens Need Privacy Teens not only strive to be independent during adolescence, they also endure physical changes that make privacy during this age imperative. A daughter who always felt comfortable changing clothes in front of her mother may no longer want to disrobe in front of her. She may also lock her bedroom door or the bathroom door to ensure that her wish for privacy is respected. The Benefits of Giving Teens Privacy When we give our teens the privacy they need, they become more independent and build their self-confidence. Balance between knowing what your teen is doing, trusting your teen to have some private matters and knowing when to step in is a fine line that parents walk every day. Trust your instincts. When to Invade a Teen's Privacy Sometimes a parent may need to decide that it's time to snoop on their teens. Parents shouldn't take this step to find out why a teen had a fight with a friend or for another seemingly innocuous reason. Instead, they should reserve snooping if an adolescent shows signs of depression or of hurting himself or someone else.​ If your child sleeps all the time, has lost interest in the hobbies that he used to enjoy, has become withdrawn, stopped socializing, or is showing other red signs, such as drug or alcohol use, it may be time to snoop. Snooping should never be the first move a parent makes under these circumstances, however. First, try to communicate with your teen about the changes in his behavior. Ask why he no longer wants to play on the basketball team or hang out with his best friend since kindergarten. Then, listen to what your child says. If all you get in response is a shrug or "I don't know," consider having your child see a therapist. If the teen directly states that he wants to harm himself or someone else, forget snooping and get medical help right away. Wrapping Up Respecting a teen's privacy is an important move to make if you want your child to believe you trust in her or that she's capable of some forms of independence. However, if your teen is showing major signs of acting out, it is likely necessary for you to invade her privacy to get her the help she needs as soon as possible. We all have secrets that we don’t want anyone to see. Especially when someone tries to go through my phone without my permission. I remember one time I showed my colleague a photo on my mobile phone because of my work, but he secretly browsed all the pictures in my gallery. I am very angry, although there is nothing strange in my phone. But this disrespect for my privacy is very disgusting. I like joking around with my friends but I don’t think trying to get some dirt on your friend’s cell is funny. I find it quite disrespectful. I know just a way to stop your parents from taking your phone. There are some apps that can lock your phone and no one can unlock it without your password. I know sometimes it might be hard for us to tell our parents to stay away from our phone. If you are afraid your parent would be angry for you to lock your phone, you can use the fake cover feature. it would make your phone looks like it’s not working well. And lastly teens who are afraid to tell their parents how they feel about the lack of privacy. Listen tell them as soon as you can because frankly it's better to blush and squirm and have an uncomfortable conversation once then to be pale and frustrated for the rest of your life. And by rest of your life I mean many asian , indian families have adult kids who still live with their parents due to social norms and let's face it you won't be able to move out the second you turn 18 so it is better to just grit your teeth and say it now rather than suffer in silence because if you choose the latter you only have yourself and your cowardice to blame. And if your parents refuse to listen then welll I have given you a tip to protect your phone you might as well use it
