I can’t watch it.

I’ve always asked my kids, randomly, starting in about middle school . . . anybody picking on you? . . . everthing ok? . . . etc. etc. They’d usually look at me like “why are you asking” and I’d say I just want to make sure and you can tell me if you have any problems or trouble. I told them other kids can be very mean and I just want to make sure they are OK and no one is mistreating them.

Poor girl. So sad. Parents can’t just assume, they have to ask and “pry a little bit” at that age.

Pry hell, for the step daughter, who had network access, I had packet sniffers running on the house network and her mom had a keystroke recorder running on her laptop.

We didn't know that the other one was monitoring, until later, when something came up.

Parenting is serious work.
