This is a rant inspired by SAMMY! She's forcing me to do it. Really.
This rant is about parents and.. paranoia, basically. Well, really internet friends:
I have some really nice internet friends. I have a feeling they are 100% real, seeing as I've talked to Dawn and Jenya on the phone, I've seen 234234234 pictures of a lot of them, etc.
How parents can still consider these people as rapists on the internet is beyond me. I understand that out there there are some sick people just looking for kids to rape. That is pathetic, yes. But really, how on earth would they get pictures, many of them where the person is either a) looking directly into the camera, or b) looking like they're posing for the picture.
Sammy says her mother suggested that they are "stalking the person". Okay, right. How are they going to take the pictures? "Heeey, I'm stalking you, I'm in your bedroom or some other random scenery of your house, LET ME TAKE YOUR PICTURES SO I CAN POST THEM ON THE INTERNET AND PRETEND TO BE YOU!" Riiight.
My mother believes internet friends are not my real friends. She claims they are my acquaintances, just because I don't see them in real life. This makes me angry. I'm closer to my internet friends than ANY of my other friends in real life, and I always will be. It's not that I like living so far apart from the closest friends I have in the world. I'm sorry I wasn't born in the same city as them?
She should try hanging out with the people in Leesburg that are my age. One word to describe them? IMMATURE. I have never seen more immature people in my life. It is rare for them to have a serious moment. In words that describe me at school, the teachers say I "look depressed", "have antisociality", and "my job is to be crabby." Apparantly, I do not want to get along with these kids. I'm sorry that I find them annoying?
So. Sammy says that she might get a second house in Florida. Orlando, to be exact. Which is around 50 minutes from my house or so. She says "DAWN MIGHT GET A TRAIN FROM FT. LAUDERDALE TO HERE! YOU SHOULD COME TOO, WE COULD GO TO DISNEY WORLD AND RIDE ITS A SMALL WORLD!" Lmfao. Now, would that not be grand? But for one,
a. If my mother DID allow me to go, which is HIGHLY unlikely, she would insist on following me because:
1) Disney is huge. I COULD GET KIDNAPPED. *cough*
2) She probably still would not trust my internet friends if they were right in front of her face to see.
etc.
All I'm saying is it would be nice to have parents who actually TRUST their kids instead of being afraid that whatever they do is wrong, that they're going to die from it, that rapists that are really their great internet friends are going to kill them when they least expect it, like we don't have brains to think for ourselves and realize that it's obvious these people are real. I swear one day I will meet my internet friends even if I have to meet them when I'm 42. I willlllll do it. Haha.
