SCHOOL IS BACK.
I've been really bored recently. Time to find something to complain about.
I hate it when people flip a bitch at me about internet safety.
You heard of the 16-year-old kid who met up with a 42-year-old woman who was his RP girlfriend on WoW? My parents and my grandma have been obsessing over it for the past few days as if I've never heard of shit like this before.
Don't you hate it too? I've had them following me around for the past week asking me my opinion on this and telling me not to date 50-year-old men on the internet. Now let me ask you, am I stupid? Yes, I know I'm 12 and all that shit. But do you honestly think if a random guy I don't know asked me out on a video game, I'd accept? Hell no. I'm not a dumbass.
And I can't even remember how many times I've been told "Don't give out your name or photo on the internet!" Alright. My name is Sofia. I've got a photo up on 
my myspace. Now tell me my address, phone number and home town. What? You can't?! THEN WHY IS IT SO DANGEROUS TO PUT THAT OUT THERE?!
I can't tell you all how much I hate all this "internet safety" bullshit. I'm not going to end up like that kid. I know shit about privacy. I've started to get so pissed off over parents obsessing about internet safety that I have to restrain myself from screaming when I hear a little kids' commercial that ends with "ASK YOUR PARENTS BEFORE GOING ONLINE."
Honestly. It's really pissing me off how people think I'm stupid enough to do something like what that kid did. My grandma's been hovering over me while I play WoW for the past couple days saying "ARE YOU TALKING TO A MAN. ARE YOU TALKING TO A MAN. CAN I PLAY WITH YOU. ARE YOU TALKING TO A MAN." And my dad's been clogging up my email inbox with "I'M NOT GOING TO MAKE A BIG DEAL ABOUT THIS BUT WHAT DO YOU THINK OF THIS KID WHO DID THIS SHIT? LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL. HUH? LOL I BET MARTIN LUTHER KING WOULD GIVE A SHIT ABOUT THIS KID" (I told him MLK was my role model. Because he's the closest thing I have to one.)
LIKE REALLY. AM I STUPID? I DON'T KNOW VUTALES, YOU TELL ME.
inb4 "they're just doing this because they want you to be safe"

Parents these days are way too obsessed about safety pre-cautions. LET THE KID SCRAPe HIS FRIGGIN KNEE, HE’LL LEARN TO NOT GO DOWN THE SLIDE ON HIS KNEES!

You’re 12… and yet your name is testicular…
You’re either very mature for your age… or very, uh, “mature” for your age.
Parents tend to be protective until you have a job, a wife and are over 21.
Gen’ralization.
My parents trust me. =O

I didn’t even notice, and although I didn’t fell off my chair, I did chuckle amusingly.
Ugh.
MARRY ME. AND WE’LL LET OUR KID SCRAPE HIS KNEE UNTIL HE DOESN’T GO DOWN THE SLIDE ON HIS KNEES.
LOLOLOLOL.
If your kid wants to skateboard, are you going to let him, knowing full well that he could hurt himself?
No, you’re just going to tell him to be careful and send him on his way. Let him learn lessons on his own, don’t hold his his entire life.
Protection =/= Re-Education Through Labor
Also, don’t upload a picture from a device that can be location tracked, like an iPhone.
Bad things happen.
Sounds like my mom.
Oh, and she doesn’t allow me to do chores because she’s afraid that I’ll screw the house over. Not that I don’t like that, but…
You’re too weird to be a girl anyway.

You’re also a male.
Therefore, he was correct.
NO U.

Apologies for the gender confusion. Was really reflecting myself, and from what I’ve seen.
That and I honestly didn’t think you were female until I looked at you Vufile.
I am actually a 40 year old man. 😐
As things stand, parents are naturally protective of their children. I mean they are of their own DNA, they are their creation so it is natural that you don’t want them to become injured or killed.
Ugh.
It’s a great way for children to learn.
For example, there is a child poking around a powerpoint. The mother will snatch them away and berate them about the dangers so they will never do it again. The father will watch the child get shocked then say “I bet you’re not going to do that again/now you know the dangers of powerpoints.”.
My mom doesn’t let me play video games after Nass showed me one of those lame flash sex games while she was in the house.
But I play The Sims 3 when she’s not home.
So I can’t really relate to you much.

Also remember all the money spent on education and stuff.
If (s)he gets (her/him)self killed, consider all that money spent on…a dead person D:
