Well played

Today, while looking through my son's browser history, I found a Google search for "stop looking in my history u nosey cunt". I swore last week that I don't invade his privacy, so I can't even punish him for the bad language without looking like a lying bastard. FML

Today, my dad saw my cleared internet history and said, "You do know we can still track your history with your IP address, right?" I don’t ever look at porn or anything like that. I just don’t want other people knowing all my business all the time. FML

Today, I overheard my grandpa telling my mom he'd found a load of porn in my laptop's browser history, but that he deleted all the "filth" so she wouldn't have to see it. She believed him and I got grounded, much to his amusement. I've never looked up porn on that computer in my life. FML

Today, I looked through my daughter’s search history. Did I find porn? No, worse. At the age of 17, she has been looking up the definitions of commonly used words such as ‘arbitrary,’ ‘pretentious,’ and ‘initiative.’ FML

Today, while on my Dad's computer, I looked through the browser history to find the name of a website I'd visited on it the other day. I soon found out he watches a staggering amount of downright frightening incest porn. I'm disturbed on so many levels. FML

Today, my parents scoured my browser history, certain that I have a hidden Facebook account that I'm using to get up to no good. Their reasoning was that there's no way my only friends are my relatives and that all I can post about is about the weather. FML

Today, while having a sneak through my brother's browser, I found a bookmark for a Google Docs file. It was a short story involving him horrifically killing our entire family. It ended with the words: "And that is what happens when people don't respect the author's privacy." FML

Today, I went through my 15 year old daughter's internet history. On google she searched 'Excuses to get away from your dad' and 5 other variations of the same thing. We were supposed to be having a father daughter day tomorrow. FML

Today, my dad wanted to show me a cool camera he saw on Amazon yesterday, so I let him use my laptop to find it. I realized too late that I'd forgotten to clear my browsing history. The suggested purchases section was filled with dildos and lube. He definitely noticed. FML

Today, I decided to go through my younger brother's browser history. I found out he goes regularly on PornHub. He's only 10. FML

Overly strict and invading parents make for amazing sneaks and great liars.

Served you right. Now maybe you'll start acting like a parent and monitor and restrict his freedom better since he doesn't seem to be able to handle it himself

Don't betray your son's trust or invade his privacy. Your son will start to hate you.

It's one thing to check occasionally with his knowledge but it's another to lie to his and saying you wouldn't do it but doing it anyway. You most certainly deserve it.

I get that you want to ensure your sons safety, my mom did the same to me, and I plan on at least making sure my future kids do not do anything harmful or illegal. I agree with you keeping tabs on him, but, you were wrong for trying to hide it when your son clearly knows you do it, just own up to it, do not punish him for calling you out, but know that now he may start deleting the history IF he is old enough to know how.
