    monitering or not monitering depends on the kid. If you have seen your kid on the internet alot and seems to be covering up some stuff then you might ask them or take a small peak but thats all. Dont go all out monitering fullday the computer because some smart kids can get around it.

      I believe the same as OP, pretty much. My mom knows that I "hack" and they dont seem to mind. But most of all my mom doesnt want me to talk to others online. I can see where she is coming from. I have less than 10 ppl on my "buddy" list and those are the only ppl i talk to. I have to learn from others, and to do that I need to talk to them. She always comes in my room and says "I dont want you talking to anybody online" You dont know who those ppl are, she says. And i agree with her, But as long as we are sharing computer knowledge and that is it, then i dont care. I am very secretive about my personal information, (location, name etc...) But i believe parents have the right to know what there kids are doing.

      I'm bout half-sick.. :P

            My parents tried to care for a while but never to the NAZI-like level of not letting me talk to my friends online. My dad the other day worried why I wanted to buy a wifi Antenna for my car........but I asured him that what I do isnt illegal......yet

              who said children had privacy?

              who said the children have to be aware that they know they are being monitored?

                        hehe, I agree. If my parents had the ABILITY to monitor what I do online, props to them. I'd probably then be able to have a semi-indepth conversation with them about my interests. My mom is cool about things, just the other day I explained to her what Wardriving is and she found it very interesting.

                          Want to swap moms? My mom and I were watching TLC I think and it was on a show that had wardriving, and I think it mentioned DEFCON being a hacker convention...I had always passed it off as a "computer security convention"....and she asks me if I knew it was a hacker convention, I said "yeah, but I learned a lot." I think that might have frightened her. Then I continued to explain that the government oversees what happens there and it's a totally secure place for me. I say taht DEFCON is where the rest of the world finds out about security and is able to fix their systems, she had mixed emotions about that one. My dad on the other hand could care less, he just wants me to enjoy myself.
                          Where's the dedication?

                            My parents still think about it as a "computer con" luckly. My dad sorta found out what wardriving was, he needs constant reassurance it isnt gonna get me arrested. DEFCON to me was a great learning experience, I went in knowing little about wifi/wardriving, and now after research and reading the powerpoints, I have improved my skills.

                              What does your mom know that you do, and how are you defining "hacking". If your mom knows that you have a general interest in technology and how it works etc. That is cool. If, however your mom is cool with your breaking a law but doesn't want you to talk to people online then there is a problem.

                              By the way, you can tell "mom" that you are talking to more then 10 people on this message board. Becareful, she might revoke internet.

                              How old are you anyway? If you are over 16 and your mom is still afraid of you talking to people online, then that shows a great amount of doubt on your mothers part in relation to you, as well as, perhaps, I lack of trust. Maybe it's time to sit down and explain to Mom about how people get abducted from talking online, and that just because you talk to some catholic priest online doesn't mean he is going to be able to get to you.
