Title: Ridiculous!!!
Post by: Localonthe8s on August 15, 2007, 01:34:11 PM
My parents keep asking me to get off the computer and I try to ignore them but they keep catching me online. Is there anyway I can covince my parents that it is necessary to stay online at TWC Today? You just can't stay online for 5 minutes and shazam! you're done!

Right now they don't care but at the peak times, usually around 10pm they just ask me to go leave! I find it necessary to stay online. TWC stuff online is interesting then what's on TV. I mainly watch TWC for the music and for any severe wx. None for today so online is my only method of fun. I'm bored all the time! What am I gonna do? NO siblings, no pets, no teenage friends, nothing on TV, had my walk this morning. The only answer left: go online!

Well its not true, but I'll go along with it if it'll make you behave.  :D

Title: Re: Ridiculous!!!
Post by: lfmusiclover on August 15, 2007, 02:15:58 PM
But the problem is still there. As far as I'm concerned there is nothing that will make you behave normally that I can do. I'm not a licensed shrink. I just play one around here.  :D :rofl2:

Seriously though, I've come to the conclusion that some help is the only thing that will change you.

I can't tell if you're being good but hosting a new server for Gary's website is a good thing of you :) As well creating the star base.

So are there any other ideas for my parents to know that I should be online frequently. Maybe I should say "I'm your 14 year old teenage son. Your only child! Can't your only son use the computer? You should let me go online to TWCT and TWCC often."

He did mention he has a mental disorder.

I'm well aware of that, and that's precisely why I have virtually no control over his actions, and why my only course of action is to remove him when he acts up.
Title: Re: Ridiculous!!!
Post by: G2003 on August 15, 2007, 02:26:35 PM
But i havent acted up in a while :)
Title: Re: Ridiculous!!!
Post by: lfmusiclover on August 15, 2007, 02:29:42 PM
But you will. I can ban you all I want, and tell you to behave until my face turns blue, but you won't because you need more than that.
Title: Re: Ridiculous!!!
Post by: G2003 on August 15, 2007, 02:30:50 PM
How do you know I will act up? I havent done it in a while.
Title: Re: Ridiculous!!!
Post by: lfmusiclover on August 15, 2007, 02:31:24 PM
Has your mental disorder gone away?
Title: Re: Ridiculous!!!
Post by: G2003 on August 15, 2007, 02:31:56 PM
Obviously not. something like that cant just "go away"
Title: Re: Ridiculous!!!
Post by: Localonthe8s on August 15, 2007, 02:33:11 PM
Easier said than done. You can't cure a mental disorder nevertheless many diseases.
Title: Re: Ridiculous!!!
Post by: lfmusiclover on August 15, 2007, 02:33:58 PM
That's my point exactly. Thank you for illustrating it.
Title: Re: Ridiculous!!!
Post by: G2003 on August 15, 2007, 02:34:24 PM
I don't see why that would affect anything.
Title: Re: Ridiculous!!!
Post by: lfmusiclover on August 15, 2007, 02:35:25 PM
If your not getting help for your disorder, then nothing is going to change. You need to get help, and you need to learn control. Those things CAN be done.

Talking to a psychologist can help often. I talk to my psychologist often and she says if TWC and the internet makes me feel better, than stick to it! :)
Title: Re: Ridiculous!!!
Post by: G2003 on August 15, 2007, 02:37:19 PM
my psychologist is an idiot...he only cares about money. but then again, they all do...
Title: Re: Ridiculous!!!
Post by: lfmusiclover on August 15, 2007, 02:38:02 PM
Not unless your seeing a shrink, or some other professional. That's why I can't get you to behave. I'm not a shrink! I can do what I can to try and keep you under control for as long as possible, but eventually you will screw up UNTIL you receive help and learn how not to screw up.
Title: Re: Ridiculous!!!
Post by: G2003 on August 15, 2007, 02:38:41 PM
I will learn :)

My dad said to get my @$$ of the computer. He said its a very bad habit. No it isn't! You guys have been online for much longer and no one's complaining. I think my dad is up to something. Yeah, when you're not home I could be logging onto bad sites! Bull$h!%! No I don't!

Don't look now, but I'm an adult. I set my own rules. No one tells me when to get off the computer.  :D

Sooner or later I'll probably sell my Mac laptop for a PC. Maybe Gil will take it. I know he likes Macs.
