My mother always claims that she doesn't care what happens as long as we're honest about it. That's a load of bull.
Last night my mother got in from a match.com date after midnight. I hear her high heels slapping the floor. She walks over near my room and stops. I try to figure out what she's doing because she's not entering my room or my sister's which is right across the hall. Then it comes to me. She's going through our cellulars. Our phones sit outside our rooms every night because my mother doesn't want us to be texting when we should be sleeping. It's understandable. Five minutes later and she's still there. I decide to go and catch her in the act. I turn on my light and open my bedroom door. She drops a phone becomes a deer in headlights. A few moments pass and I ask her "Are you going through our phones?" She spends the next minute or two making excuses. She claims that she's worried about my sister. I go to the bathroom and return to my bedroom pissed off. She walks in a few moments later and tries to explain further. She says that some person from the D.A. thinks that teens' cellphones and Facebook pages shouldn't be private and she has a right to look at it. I get that. However, I think that parents should only invade privacy if there's a valid reason. My mom says that she thinks my fourteen year old is smoking pot. Right. She tells me that it might be the reason that my sister is so unmotivated. If she has to move down to a normal level class, she must be on drugs! This morning my sister noticed that her phone was turned on and unplugged (she had turned it off and plugged it in last night). She asked my mom if she had unplugged it and my mom said that she hadn't. She straight up lied to her face. This was the second time my mom has lied about going through our phones. I decided that my little sister should know the truth so I told her what my mother had told me on the way into school this morning. When my mom picked me up after school my sister was already in the car and they were talking about it. It seems to be the only thing that we're talking about at all.
Peace bitches!
