Your parents only have your best interest at heart. I know at 14, you're probably counting down the days to your 18th birthday; I know I was at that age. While you're not a child, you aren't an adult either. Wisdom comes with age and experience. If this is someone you met in a chat room, how do you know that they are who they say they are? There are alot of people out there pretending to be something they're not. Haven't you seen Dateline recently? Your parents are just being protective of you, as they should be. Just take a step back and realize that they love you and are concerned for your well being. It's hard for parents to let go sometimes. Try to keep the lines of communication open with them and don't be afraid to compromise. Speaking from experience, I'd say not to rush growing up; once you're grown with many responsibilities, you can never go back to being a teen again. Good luck.

Ok, at 14 you are a kid. Young and trusting and your parents are doing their job. There job is to protect you. Do you know this person you chat with? I mean in person do you know him? Do you go to school with him? I could say I am a 14 or 15 year old boy on the net. I can post any picture I want you to see. Your mom and dad are doing the job of being loving parents and you should be saying thank you for loving me and protecting me. Just take a look at the kid who have been raped and killed because they were talking to what they thought was a kid their own age on the net. If you were as grown up as you think you are you would see the danger unless you know this person.

I have a lot of respect for your parents right now. They SHOULD interfere. Thats what a good parent does. You never know for sure who you're chatting with on the internet anyway. The internet can be a very unsafe place to chat for a teenager. Us parents know that. They just love you and want to protect you. If they weren't like this with you then you should ask yourself if they really cared. Plus the fact that you are still 14 which isn't legally an adult in the first place. You do still have to listen to them.

OKAY IT DOES SEEM LIKE PARENTS ARE JUST BEING PLAN OUT OLD FARTS WHEN IT COMES TO CERTAIN THINGS BUT U HAVE TO LOOK AT IT LIKE THIS THEY HONESTLY LOVE U AND JUST WANTS WHATS BEST FOR YOU SOMETIMES WE DON'T SEE IT RIGHT AWAY BUT WHEN U GET OLDER AN REALLY START LIVING LIFE U WILL LOOK BACK ON SOME OF THE THINGS YOUR PARENTS TOLD U OR DID AN BE LIKE DOG GONE THEY WERE RIGHT. WE DON'T UNDERSTAND AS YOUNGSTER BECAUSE WE JUST WANT TO DO WHATS IN. WE DON'T KNOW WHATS ALWAYS RIGHT MAY BE FUN BUT NOT RIGHT. SO AS LONG AS YOUR PARENTS NAG AT U U KNOW THAT THEY LOVE YOU WHEN THEY STOP AND START LETTING U DO WHAT EVER THATS WHEN YOU REALLY SHOULD WORRY.. A NAGGING PARENT IS A PARENTS WAY OF LOVING YOU.

yes, it is ok. But the mentality of your parents is more evolved than your's and they love you so much that they want to keep your thinkings and thaughts pure, like they were before talking with that boy on net. Sometimes, the most important victorie is that you defend yourself. THINK ABOUT IT! and explain t them calmly the situation

I think it is fine depending upon what you are chatting about. If your parents do not have a problem with the "type" of things you chat about then go for it.
You are young and they are just looking for your best interest.

Okay, your parents are responsible for your safety, and actions until you are 18. If they say back off, you should.
There are evil people pretending to be teen boys just trying to find and KILL you...or worse.
They worry about you and they have good reason to. Give them a break. It is not a safe world out there.

yeah its perfectly fine but you just have to understand it from your parents point of view, most teenage kids ur age lie about what they do on the net, you just have to show them you r resposile and let them know you can be trusted and when that fails, you should sit down with them as a family and have a nice little talk about it!!!

I am sure your sick of hearing things like this but your parents just love you and want you to be safe that is why they make the rules they do. Try to be happy you have parents that care so much about you.
