spork:

let me talk a little about privacy and respecting my parents. i grew up with 2 households, my moms and my dads. my dad was always horribly nosy, excessively nosy. he’d go through my internet history, he’d go through my mail, he even put an app on my phone when he was borrowing it to monitor all of my text messages and phone calls. now my mom. i can set my phone on the table unlocked and walk away for two hours and not even be slightly worried that she’ll go through it. wanna borrow my laptop mom? sure. no rush of anxiety. she trusts me, i trust her. guess which parent i respect more and who has greater influence over me and my decisions? that’s right. her.
