I'm nineteen, and my parents watch me like hawks.  I've never done anything to betray their trust, yet I'm spied on every fifteen minutes when I'm on the computer. It's quite annoying.  It's also agonizing.  I feel like I'm in a prison while on vacation! What's that all about? I was drawing in my room the other day and my dad comes in and asks what I was doing...what I was drawing.  It wasn't enough that I told him WHAT I was DOING, but he needed all the details.  I'm NINETEEN, where's some privacy? Where some freedom to do some stuff that I want to do? Why do I need reasons to do them?  I haven't done much in my teenage years and in one more year I can't say I was just a stupid teenager.  I obey, listen, sit, stay...why can't I do some things on my own!  I'm not five anymore, I can cross streets without holding someone's hand, I should be able to go out with my friends whenever I have bored/free time.  NOt like my parents do anything that I'm intrested in.  They tend to be really boring when I go out shopping with them. I can't just go into a store to "look" I have to be looking for something.  Oh well, this rant is just making me more frustrated, I might as well just stop here.
