Teaching someone what they should and shouldnt do, and why, is better and more effective than any amount of iron-fisted control or spying.

You read "iron fisted" and "breathing down my neck" into my post.
I never stated nor implied monitoring every mail, post, site for a teen of sixteen to eighteen. But, the ability to if you feel their is evidence, or if you just need piece of mind, is just good parenting.
Do your parents ask where you are at night, who you were with?
It is
identical.
Also, my statement was not teen specific, you also read that into my post.
My son is three and plays games on-line, am I an asshole?
