Are you kidding me? As a child I was spanked (and I am only 10 years older than you) a handful of times. I can remember each one vividly. I deserved it too. Those punishments made an impact. I learned right from wrong. You don't seem to be understanding that.

The fact is you hit your child the more they feel it's right to hit someone if doing wrong.

Again, I disagree. I would NEVER hit another person to solve a problem. I wasn't raised that way. If I was spanked there was a reason and it was discussed.

Any way it's now stupid because I was agruing over the internet again. Because I was baned for a whole week 7 DAYS! Not even to check my mails. If you have read my post "I'm addicted to the internet!" Then I really can't help it. So hard to get away from the computer unless my mind is set off.

That is ridiculous! 7 days is extremely reasonable for your behavior. And honestly, had you thrown your little tantrum for me, it would have been a month. Suck it up, and do your time. I believe you need other hobbies than just the internet anyway. Go outside and enjoy the fresh air.

When I was in high school, I called myself in sick to school one day because I didn't want to go. It was the first time I had ever done anything like that. Not only was the internet taken away for 3 months, my parents were livid! This was for a first time incident. At this time I had also just met my future husband. The internet was our only means of communication.

So I have very little sympathy for your "addiction". Personally, your computer would be gone from your bedroom if it were my house.

I didn't aim to hurt any way but myself. After breaking this wooden man statue on the floor. My arm was bruised badly. I just can't take control over my life! So I might as well go on the computer to take control of my mind. Yes, I'm ashmed but no I'm not getting off of the %#@&amp;#! computer just yet!

Delibrately disobeying your parents isn't taking control of your life, its bucking authority. Challenging anyone who is trying to help you. Miss_A...talk to some of the people here about what they endured as children. Some folks here were truly abused by their parents/grandparents. If it were me, I would be a little embarrassed of my immature reactions to people who obviously care about you and want what is best for you.

If you want to take control of your life, then do it! Suck it up and start acting like an adult.

I have been 14 and I know it is a confusing time with lots going on, but it is not the end of the world! Make decisions and stick with them. It's for your own best interest. If you begin acting like an adult, maybe your parents will begin treating you like an adult.

Good luck Miss_A.
