The parents obviously have serious issues and likely need a mental evaluation.

If the parents had been loving and understanding, then this girl would probably have a better relationship with them. But instead the parents are manipulative psychopaths who tapped their daughter's phone.

Re: College student gets restraining order against parents for tracking calls.
yes and when the parents become old and in need - the children will abandon them to a home where the staff treats them like crap and abuses them.

Upon there death at the service, these same children will shed a tear then fight over what they get.

welcome to the break down of the family structure.

The only silver lining is that when these people have children, they will one day realize how selfishness is a two way street.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 28689320


To whom are you referring to as selfish.

By allowing and encouraging my kids to become responsible for themselves, they responded by picking up the ball.
Doesn't mean you stop supporting them, but they need to learn to make their own mistakes, just as you made yours.

Holding on to a 21 year old adult by controlling and spying was a recipe for disaster. The parents clearly have separation and control issues.

Re: College student gets restraining order against parents for tracking calls.
She had full ride scholarships to other schools, but her parents wanted her to attend this one. So they agreed to pay her tuition. But they acted so crazy that her school hired security guards to keep them out of her plays. That's not normal parenting. Especially when they planned to have her committed, at that point the girl had to go into survival mode and protect herself from her crazy parents.

She has a school scholarship for her Senior year, hopefully she uses it to graduate and move somewhere without leaving a forwarding address to her parents.

I normally support family ties, but draw the line when parents try to have their children locked away because they dare to have some freedom.

Re: College student gets restraining order against parents for tracking calls.
BTW

My Dad is now dead, but we never had a bad word, and I loved him and took care of him till he died...

Mom is still alive, and now legally blind...I will be driving her for her groceries in the AM...

They came to respect my decisions, and I certainly respect them for 'cutting me off'...

This chick has doomed her future relationship with people that obviously love(d) her...

May they all find peace and reconciliation...

Aubrey Ireland’s parents wanted to keep their daughter close – so close that they installed tracking software on the 21-year-old’s phone and computer so that they could monitor every site she visited and every person she talked to


After three years, the college senior had enough. A judge granted her a stalking order against her parents, the Cincinnati Enquirer reports. David and Julie Ireland have to stay 500 feet away from their daughter at all times and can’t get back in touch with her for a year.

Re: College student gets restraining order against parents for tracking calls.
even like 19 and over from my friends they are still being treated like 5 from their parents. Fucking stupid.
 Quoting: Blackhawkie


Parenting in the last 25 - maybe even as high as the last 40 - years really took a nosedive and we've been churning out evil, greedy, entitled, ill mannered little shitheads ever since.

By the time these lousy parents figure out what they've done to the rest of us they try like the dickens to make up for lost time... The shame of it is that is is too late and way far gone...
 Quoting: fore-eyz


If it helps you sleep at night at all, there is a rather interesting quote that goes something like this.

"I think, if we do nothing to save the next generation from their poor manners and lazy ways, humanity shall not see another generation to follow."

Plato.


That's right, almost every generation looks at the one to follow, sees the changes they've made, compares them to what they imagine to be what's proven to work (their own generation) and fears the world will end, or at least that their kids will have a hard time.

It never really happens.

What I'm saying here is that society isn't ruined. The kids are only half as bad as you think and pendulums almost always manage to swing back and forth.

Don't worry too much. The world might fall apart eventually, but if it does, odds are we'll see things correct after it happens. That's simply the way humans work.

Everyone thought that hippies would be the end to the world too, causing us all to live off the land as peace loving nomads by now. Notice, that didn't happen? The yuppies were going to turn us all into greedy corporate drones willing to put our own mothers on the street for a new swimming pool... also didn't happen.

Generation X was made of nothing but slackers, who smoke so much pot that they couldn't hold a job at all...

But now they're the backbone of the working world. Because reality caused them to settle down.

Generation Y was made up of self centered selfish brats that thought the world revolved around them...

And yet they've managed to do all the same things everyone else always has.

My point? It's natural to see things change and think that it means something bad, but people have to do certain things to stay alive and they will, because the drive to survive will always trump the newest style or trend, eventually.

Who's paying for the phone and the computer? That's all I care about.

If the parents bought it and it was given as a gift then she owns the equipment and her parents are criminals.

"The school had to hire security guards to keep her parents out"...I see a family with a very talented daughter planning their reality TV future.

Gotta have some way to get ahead in this economy!

Re: College student gets restraining order against parents for tracking calls.
And how is this any different to what happens to us all?

We get tracked with ANYTHING we do on the Internet.

Every phone is recorded ..

So what's different .


Those parents have issues . Seriously .

She 21 .. Quite an adult . Doesn't matter if mummy and daddy paid her way ? Does it give them the right to stalk her ?
