If your kids keep a diary, would you look for it and read it?

Yup. My mom was sneaky and horrible and I will be just. like. her.
If my kids are smart they will know to NOT have a diary!
-
I might if her behavior became suspicious. I would try to talk to her first but if that didn't work then I might snoop if I was really concerned. Otherwise, I know from when I used to keep my diary that most of it isn't very interesting!
-
oh my no i wouldn't. unless they were up to no good... i might not be able to resist!
-
I would do it if I had reason to be concerned. If my kids are good and give me nothing to worry about, then they have a right to their privacy.
-
I will if they leave it in plain sight!
-
I will try my hardest not to. Especially if they haven't done anything to make me think they're up to no good.
-
i dunno. i hope not. i am pretty nosey, but i want to respect their privacy, unless they give me reason not to trust them?
-
Oh jeez. I'd like to say that I won't. I'm usually not a nosy person. But when it comes to my LO, I want to know that everything is alright, ya know? I'm a social workers, I know kids carry heavy burdens sometimes, without telling someone. I'm so afraid of that happening to our LO
I think I would if I saw signs that something was up and she wasn't telling me.
-
My mom read my diary and I was SO MAD at her about it. The way she confronted me too (about silly little things) made me feel very embarrassed. I think I would try my best not to, but I'm nosy, so if I did I would do it 100% secretly and only confront our child if it was something really concerning and potentially dangerous.
-
I would try to avoid it unless there were some behavioral red flags. But even if I did read it, I would like to think that I would figure out how to use the info to improve the situation without confronting LO.
-
If I see no reason to be concerned with their actions/behavior, I definitely won't read their diary. I would have been mortified if my mom had read mine (as far as I know she didn't read it...if she did she never mentioned it!). There's no need for me to embarrass my child over crushes.
If I think I need to find out what they've been doing for their well-being...I probably will.
-
I wouldnt. Unless there really seemed to be a problem and I was REALLY concerned.
-
I really wouldn't, unless there were indicators of a serious problem and I was REALLY concerned. Otherwise it's just being nosy and invasive.
