Will you page through your girl's (daughter) diary if it is just lying around in her room?

No. That is sinking too low. If she is giving me reason to fear for her safety I definitely would.
-
read it, but just remember she could of made some stuff up, and planted it for you to find.
-
Yes, but I wouldn't tell her, she might keel over dead that I actually found interest with something she did....;+
-
I have done it and Im glad I did. But am very sad she found out. To this day she is still (I think) upset at me for it. She was running around with some bad kids and Im glad her diary helped me to become more aware of it. All I can say is try not to get caught because it might test the trust that you have with each other. If you have a good, open, loving, relationship then nothing will tear that apart. ☼

Hell yeah gotta know if my baby was being safe and make sure i don't have to kill anybody =)
-
Never. My mother did that to me and actually contacted people I talked about. It ruined any chances we ever had of a relationship.
-
Absolutely NO freakin' way!!! EVER!!! My mum did that to me...I just wrote dribbly crap...crazy poems...songs...and it was mainly fantasy...and my silly mum showed my dad...then they hammered me...and all it was...was silly crazy teenage stuff...I felt embarrassed...and my mum...well i never forgave her for her disrespect for my privacy!!! I would never do that to any of my kids ...EVER!!! Please dont do it! Its a diary...its private...have respect...Sorry...Im just so passionate about that kinda stuff!!!

You bet. It is for the higher cause, safety of my girl. The key is to act diplomatic, and pretend I didn't. (The lesser of two evils).
-
NO, she deserves her privacy. Unless she does something that drives me to be an over obsessed parent and read through it then i will but no other reason.
-
no
-
Not likely - the only time I would invade anyone's privacy is if I had a really, really, really good reason to. Other then that, her life, her business.
-
No way. My kids tell me WAY more than I want to know already!
-
Yes, but only if I had real reasons to suspect that she was doing something illegal or something that could ruin her life. Short of that the rest is not my business. Shes allowed her own rants and ravings and fantasies. I wouldn't tell her what I did. But if I found that my fears were comfirmed I would try to get her help.
-
Yes. Only to ensure her safety, if I felt she was hiding something or leading a double life somehow. Some people don't know the difference between a buddy and a parent. Your buddy accompanies you to the abortion clinic whereas your parent keeps you from getting pregnant in the first place.
