I remember growing up my mom never supervised what I was doing...at home or otherwise. She didn't watch what I was doing when we got the internet, either. That was probably some form of neglect but sometimes I wish she would've set more limitations on my activities because I would think that she cared.
My sister constantly got grounded and I got so mad at my mom because I saw that punishment as love...that she loved my sister more even though I was 12 years old!
I think that my mom's lack of supervision adds to a lot of the things I've got into trouble with...off and online.
