Being a parent is hard as it is - you want the best for your child but sometimes good intentions can be a cause for toxic actions. For example, some parents are over-protective of their children, therefore, they are having a hard time trusting them. One Tumblr user told a story about participating in a panel of Girl Scouts event, where a question was asked: “Should parents read their daughter’s texts or monitor her online activity for bad language and inappropriate content?” Seemingly, the older and the younger generation had very conflicting opinions about it.
Other users sided with OP by sharing their own thoughts on children's privacy
One teenager offered their own experiences to support the idea that over-protective parents harm their relationship with children
