We know -- there's a lot of reasons to worry about your teens today. They can text faster than you can speak and spend more time on the computer than at the dinner table. Do you think your teen may be getting in trouble or are you just being paranoid? Take our quiz and find out if you should be snooping on your teen!
If you have to do it, you might as well do it right.
Great site. Keep doing.
Excellent site. It was pleasant to me.
I want to say - thank you for this!
Ok I am a kid an don't disagree with searching your kids stuff but to an extent. My mom always told me that if it's under my house then it belongs to me. She NEVER had to put a tracking device in my phone and those crazy ideas because we built trust with each other,so it didn't have to result to that. I think the parents these days are afraid of letting there kids go and that's one main thing you have to do when you become a parent. You can't always keep them so closed in a little box. You have to show that you trust them and maybe the outcome will change.
Hi Tyra!im a 19 year old girl from hawaii. and today i had watched your show about sexting.. well for me i think that girl's[HAZEL] mother is so not doing the right thing by letting her daughter have sex/sexting. as for me even though i am of age/a young adult; iknow my limits. imean yes my mother do go through my phone sumtimez n i do get mad, cause im old enough to do things on my own and stuff..but she doesnt find sexting.. a parent has to try and TRUST her kids. the more you dont trust and the moe you go through your kids things the more their going to do what other kids do..like sex and sexting..but anyways i still think that its wrong for a mother to let her 15 year old sext or have sex..and just because you guyz talk about it it really doesnt mean that your kid had learned anything..
I'm a 15 year old girl, and yeah I used to sext. Until I realized how stupid it is, it's just another way for girls to loose their self respect and guys to take advantage on girls. Girls are just stupid nowdays and would do anything to get guys attention and this is just another way to do it. The only reason girls call guys jerks and things like that is because of us girls, were giving them a reason to.

I'm 17 years old, and i believe that haveing a solid relationship with your child will rule out the need to snoop on them. While I dont have any children myself I am a teen, and the relationship I have with the adults in my life is that if something significant is happening I can confide in them and not be judged, chastise, or fliiped out on. Teens hide things because they dont have the confidence to share, but a solid fondation of trust would do away with all of that. And also, being constantly monitored like a criminal makes you want to behave like a criminal, if only to prove the Warden right. Sometimes you just have to back off.
Tyra I have a 16 yr. old who loves to play basketball, but he doean't like to have a curfew, and he too has received sextexting pic from friends that have disappointed me. One pic had a young lady exposing her top just as she came out of the shower, there was another one that had an 300+ pound girl touching her toes,I am sick and tired of trying to talk to him until I am blue in the face. So I sat down had a talk about him possibly getting in trouble about the pics his response was why are there so many rules for us teens we can't do this, we can't do that...so I told him that just because I am grown doesn't mean I don't have rules to follow either, the way I got his attention I stop talking in H-Town young people have curfews and are issued tickets and they must carry some form of ID, its because their are so many young parents who don't care about their childrens where abouts, I am not one of them. We can't watch our children 24/7, but we can keep up with what they do, and most of all who they hang with. Any suggestions I would greatly appreicate I am a single mom he is my last one at home I don't make alot of money to take vacations so we can spend more time together not just around the house my 20yr. old just moved out in June he is doing well, but my 16yr. is so different I feel like I have failed as a mother.
I watched the video about the man who wanted to have sex all the time he needs to get a life and I am so sorry but his wife does not look like mariah carey in no shape or form to me she is not cute, attractive at all and he isn't good looking either , but beauty is in the eyes of the beholder?????????
Tyra, I think you are doing a wonderful job especially where teen are concerned. I have an 18 year old who just graduated high school so far Jenae has been a really good girl. We've had our moments quite a few but she's really a good girl. I know you've addressed self esteem issues often and hers is very low. She's a beautiful girl but I think her problem comes in when people tell her she looks like me. Our complexions a great difference she's more light complexioned and I am a very brown. It would be nice to see you address this issue on your show.
hey Tyra, Im 15 years old and i enjoy your show very much! Now watching parents snooop aroudn in thier childrens thing to me is not only wrong, but increbliy rude! In my view of parents snooping atound it just show they just dont trust themselve to trust thier children!!!!!! Kids are never going to learn how to do things right if they cant do anything wrong to learn the right! I agree parents should look atfer us make sure were ok, but following our every move, how are they going to ever let us go? To all the parents out there who are following watching every move there chikdrens do, Im happy you love your children enough not to let them get in to trouble but them the free, let them fall o ther face, there caome back to you! Your Brittany! (p.s. if you read this tyra, your my role model, many dont know that, but i love you and your show
I'm 14 years old and when I was like 10-12 my parents would look through my stuff. I would hate when they would ask me for passwords to email accounts, or go through my phone to see my text or calls. Parents should not look through their kids stuff because it makes us rebel even more, and it makes us resent you for doing, I think this would only be okay if you thought your children were doing somthing seriously bad like drugs. When I have kids I NEVER want to do this to him/her because it makes you feel belittled and small like you have no privacy what so ever.
Heey!! I think snooping on a teen or anybody is wrong. We all have a right of privacy, and you by snooping just breaking it. We are just teens, everything we do is part of life. There is not one person known today that hasn't made a wrong choice, but you learn from it. The tighter the leash is for you from your parents the worst your teen will be to try and get out of it. The best way to know what someone is up to is to have an honest relationship with them, don't just start by yelling at them when they try to tell you something that doesn't solve anything. And thats usually why we don't tell our parents about what happens in our lives. But just recently I told my mom a lot of stuff that has happened in my life, I was sick of holding it in. All it did was starting to stack up higher and higher, and if I would have known before that she would have been so understanding in the first place I would have been honest with her from the beginning. Just be thanking for the teen you have, try to talk to them and don't raise your voice. Parents be there for them like a best friend would be. We all need one to talk to and a shoulder to cry on once in a while. You start a way better relationship by talking than by just snooping around!
