Talk about retarded parents..........Try getting some parenting skills, and actually raising your daughter, instead of using brute force to make her do what you want.

The over-sheltering of American kids continues......

"OH NOES, CAN'T LET HER OUT, SHE MIGHT GET IN TROUBLE"

Sounds like how you might treat a 12 y/o, not 16

They are VERY good parents. They also drug test her. Keeps them honest. For example, if you know your mom will do random drug/cig tests, it's easy to "just say no" since you can say "my mom piss tests me, sorry, i'll pass". just like "my mom sets the alarm at night, can't sneak out I'll get busted, sorry, I'll pass".

if at 16, they have to LOCK their daughter IN the house to keep her "safe" (for their value of safe) then parenting skills are kicking in a little late. So treating her like a 12 year old is exactly what's called for. You're right - they need to address what the issue is. What is she doing when she leaves the house that's so bad. Punish for that. Or let her do it and suffer the consequences. Except when they directly affect you. If, at 16, she brings drungs into her parent's house, it's the parents that are directly affected. If she's just breaking curfew and hanging out with people the parents don't approve of...it's annoying and frustrating but the consequences will come out sooner or later. Locking her in the house - and keeping her there - is the problem they're asking a solution for. TAKE. HER. PHONE. At 16, it's not hers anyway - I don't care who's paying for it. Live under my roof, everything you have belongs to me, you can use it as long as you follow my rules. Don't follow my rules, I'll yank all of it.

Why are they locking her in the house? For her to keep curfew?

I'm assuming so she doesn't sneak out at night.

so let her toggle the alarm - then print out the report the next morning on the toggling and let her know that turning the alarm off is the same as leaving the house - since the parents won't know if she actually left the house or just turned the alarm on/off. Then punish her for breaking curfew.

zlicius · 11-30-2009, 01:50 PM

how do you print out a report of that?

i think that's where creative punishment could come in to play...
