Help for Troubled Teenagers Forum  


Clueless - 2006/12/27 20:02 My 14 yr old daughter I believe has no clue what she is doing. She has been going on porno sites and when I found out how to get on her my space the first thing I saw was "welcome to my g spot"! She gave her dads cell # out and men were calling when he answered they hung up. I don't think she truly understands the problem with this or what can happen to her. I was extremely rebelious teen but I had a troubled home life for the most part she has it much easier than i had it. I just am at a loss and don't want her to go through any of the experiences i went through. I've thought about telling her some of the things that happened to me but wonder if that is appropriate or not. Ineed all the suggestions i can get. Help. Also to let you know I have taken the mouse and keyboard from the computer. I made her delete her my space and know she has another one. I'm not sure where she was that she had access to another computer.

Re:Clueless - 2007/01/02 20:36 As a concerned parent, if you don't want your teenage daughter to go through any of the past experiences you went through as a troubled teen it would be great if you could share what you learned from your own experiences with her. You may be worried or concerned that by sharing your past rebellious experiences she may take in your experiences in a negative light but you should be aware that sharing mistakes actually does take you down to her level where she can relate to you and meet you in some place. Communication is extremely vital in a parent-teen relationship. At your daughter's young age, experimenting with sexuality and one's boundaries is common. It's good that you are disciplining her by staking boundaries of your own for the household but it is easy for her to have access to the internet from another friend's house or personal computer. So relax, there's no way for you to monitor your daughter's computer use 24/7, but as long as you know that you're taking the appropriate actions breathe easy.... goodluck!
