No, it's simple. Use the computer anyway. What the forgets he gonna do about it? Take it away? Go get it back. Break your stuff? Use his. He locks his computer? Reset bios and use a windows recovery disk to reclaim ownership. Set restrictions on the TV? Open it up when he's not home and reset it. Seriously, he'll struggle for maybe a few weeks before giving in. Persistence overcomes all. And before one of you come up with some "he'll beat your ass" excuse, you're a teenager climbing the hill to your physiological peak and he's over the hill and on the physiological decline. If my dad for some reason he wanted to beat the stuff out of me, I'd throw him down the stairs and tell him that if he ever touches me again I'll murder him. If they throw you out, sue them for neglect, child abuse, and emancipation. Then you get all the awesome benefits of being an adult without actually being an adult. It's a win-win. Plus, you can even show your parents the forget up when you proceed to disobey their every command and still do well in school. Show them that you're better than their parenting.
trinick's perspective: "if your parents threaten you and attempt to carry out physical violence on you, defend yourself and level the playing field."
everyone's persepective on tri's: "KILL YOUR PARENTS"
the problem with trinicks plan is that it would create too much conflict and is not good advice for someone who has no friends.
he and his parents would become at odds with eachother and would be more reluctant to help him do things like get a car, get into college, and other various things parents help their children with.
if you show that you dont want their discipline; their help, then you are telling them that you dont need them for anything, and therefore they will treat you as such.
but if you can get a car, get into college, get a job, etc, without any parental assistance/guidance whatsoever, then trinick's plan is for you.
however, like i've said before, if you actually want your parents help and assistance, then you should listen AND obey and not be brought to having to fight your dad over restricted electronic access.
