Today, I was going through my daughter's contacts, except all of them had names from Harry Potter. I found the name "Mom." I was relieved I didn't have some silly name, until I realized it wasn't my number; it was her father's new wife. My number was under "Voldemort." FML

That's probably because you go through your daughters phone. No sympathy from me Voldy.

Could it simply be because you lack a nose and not due to your "evil" ways as a Mom? If it's any consolation, if your kids hate you, you must be doing something right!

I can sort of see the similarities. Voldemort invaded Harry's brain, you invaded your daughter's privacy...

Even if she was a child, she could very well ask her daughter to go through her phone or for her daughter to give her contact information. It is not that hard to treat your child with respect, even if you do want to look through her phone and computer.

I don't see why parents automatically assume looking through their kids phones is alright. Why can't parents ask their children to see their phone? Yes, you have the legal right to look through their rooms, computers, phones, etc. But if they are in their teens then they are going to resent you because they want to feel like an adult. I had a great relationship with my parents because they asked. They never just went through my phone. If they needed to use it they always asked for it. I was also never stupid enough to leave texts or incriminating evidence on my phone or computer. I likely think the fact that the names were under characters was the daughter's way of making sure her nosy mother did not keep snooping.

FYI, either for snooping through your daughter's phone or for allowing her to have a phone before she's old enough to deserve her privacy.

It's strange how you were named a character without a nose when you seem pretty nosy to me. Doesn't anyone else see the irony here?

Maybe if you didn't rummage through your daughter's personal belongings and let her be a human being with privacy, she wouldn't think of you as a dark lord

The fact that you are going through her phone gives me an idea why she would call you that.

In a world of teen drinking, smoking, drug use, and pregnancy, I sure as hell would be checking my daughter's contacts, "friends," acquaintances, the whole friggin enchilada

It's not like looking through her phone will keep her away from alcohol and drugs her whole life.

Of course not her whole life, but at least while she's growing up, a minor living under her parents' roof. The way I was raised I'll never touch a cigarette, do drugs, or drink myself stupid. As a parent you got 18 years and one shot to do it right, and damned am I if I let my child get influenced by the wrong people. The way I see it, you got to control as many of the variables as you can and let your child's morals and virtue take care of the rest (which are taught, by the way) when they're old enough to make responsible decisions on their own. Sadly, 18 years isn't enough for some kids to grow up, but that's another issue
