Some Parents Taking Responsibility!
Since I’ve been harping on the lack of personal responsibility recently, I figured I would spotlight a couple of parents who are doing their jobs. Deep in this story about parents playing cyber-cop we find this:
Laura Johansson, 43, of Mannington, N.J., said she’s not shy about checking up on the online activities of her 13-year-old son, Erik.
“I just walk up behind him when he’s in a chat room on the computer,” Johansson said. “I’ll even get nosy and scroll back to see what they’ve been talking about.”
Because most kids use screen names in chat rooms, Johansson also insists that Erik provide her with a list of real names that correspond to the aliases. “I literally write down their names to keep track,” Johansson said.
Such vigilance is interpreted as harassment by some kids. Like Johansson, Kim Kienzle, 45, of Turnersville, Pa., diligently monitors her teenage children’s computer activities. “They bristle but that’s too bad,” she said. “We’re the parents.”
Many kids may find they have little choice but to submit to parental grilling.
Way to go Laura and Kim!!!
