haha i find all these posts very amusing.
why is everyone posting anonymously btw??? moms can sign there names if they like, i wont think any less of them for there own opionions. anonymous teenagers can sign there name or post from there lj....... the way i look at it is, if i get looked down on becasue of my opionion i either have something to learn, or the other person does. i just dont let how people think of me effect me at all. i'm not saying anyone should have to sign there name, and i can understand not doing it i have my ideas on who all these people are. but whos to say for sure
guess I am just saying that when we had a bad day, we didn't "vent" the way you do now. We didn't have that privelege. Back in the old day's we were limited to 15 minute phone calls. There wasn't call waiting or voice mail. You couldn't tie the phone line up. those rules didnt go for every house hold in the "old days"...... my point being we have the same type rules for computer and things now, but i would agree that we have more in the ways of technology now, more ways to express yourself.
And when I vented, I did it without out those "R" rated words. and so do i, however i cant say i'v never said one or several, seemed that everyone was arguing/discussing over the constant use of "r rated words", not that either is right, but i think its safe to say that everyone has used profanity before.
You need to thank God that your parents take the responsibility that God gave them to protect you from Satan's attacks and to teach you how to handle them for yourselves. agreed i have amazing parents who have done more for me then i can ever repay, but i guess thats part of being a parent, you would know better than me about that. I believe part of Gods calling to parents is preparing us for the real world, which my parents have done, but that is also up to us as well, i'd disagree with the anonymous teenager when they say things like, "we are not babys" quit frankly were all God's children, and i dont by any means consider myself at all grown in a spiritual or material sence. i'm 17......i'm stupid, a stupid kid with alot to learn. however i dont believe in my parents putting me in some kind of box and sheltering me and i dont believe in them just letting me do whatever i want.......theres a balance of the 2, i like to call that balance good parenting.
i think the teenagers here are trying to defend there freedom and the mom or moms are defnding there control. i'm defnding a mix, i'm guessing yall all agree with that.
To ask your parents to do less would be asking them to ignore the task that God gave them and you would be calling your parents into disobedience to God. Do you want that on your shoulders???? true man can lead man to be sinful, but each man is ultimatly responsible for his/her own actions.
If you could recognize that now, it would greatfully benefit your relationship with your parents and then maybe you could "vent" to them instead of "on-line". I agree that being able to talk to your parents is nice, but you still just dont feel comfortable talkin with them about some things, although i know there always there for me.......and i have nothing against posting your thoghts on livejournal, as long as you dont care who reads them....cuz after all this is the internet. but again i have a different opionion then both of these, id rather vent to God, cause then my problems dont bother me at all. but i'v vented on lj before and i'v vented to my parents and to friends.....
