I don't do authority figures. If my parents took my computer I'd give them hell until they gave it back. Respect isn't a one way street, I respect my parents to the extent that they respect me. The moment I turned 18 I had my vehicle and insurance signed over to my name so that if they attempted to take away my car I could file a law suit against them for larceny. I much prefer the relationship I have with my parents to a one-sided relationship where they have more say in what I do than I do myself.

I don't think he's being mean, I think he's trying to help you stay away from the computer and probably video games too. It's what parents are for, to help us.

reaf a book or something.
This too, you can also read some books. I recommend Metro: 2033 and The Shining.
