I don't have children, but if I did, I'd snoop.

As long as you are living in their home, you need to respect their rules. Believe it or not, it is a good thing.

Its one of those hard things to understand at your age (gosh, I sound so old when I say that), but think about your Dad's reason for doing so.

It could be that he snoops because he loves you and would be devistated if something happened to you that he could have prevented if only he had snooped a little into your life.

Looking back, I wish my parents had taken a more active interest in my life during my teenage years - unfortunately they were going through hard times and were solving their problems by drinking too much - and I felt pretty much invisible.

Having a parent that cares too much and is a royal pain in the **s is far better than having a parent that doesn't care what happens to you.
