no, I have thirteen yr old son, he'd never would keep one. BUT, He writes his lit papers based on things that happen in his world and to me, those are public record. :) -
I doubt my kids will keep a diary lol but I'll check they're fb/phones if I need to. I'm their parent not their friend -
Sounds like many mothers would have been clueless about my "diaries" I'd buy or ask for a steno book for school...sometimes a comp book and it stayed mixed with my other comp books or notebooks in my backpack. The only time my mother ever ventured to read a steno book was when I subconciously left it laying in the middle of my perfectly clean floor and to her, that was like a big flashing sign that said "read me" The first five pages were about the secret I had about my uncle. She did not embarrass me but did show it to dad. Nothing was ever said until dad and I were driving to visit a college and he managed (idk how) to casually bring this uncle up and things went from there.
I thing teens deserve to have thier journals as thier own. If they want you to read it...it will be casually left out in the open as I did. but I mixed it with school work mostly and never had one that said "my dairy" on it. It's stupid they even make those. -
I don't see what the harm is if they never find out.
