yes same, unless i claim that i am doing homework on the internet they think im playing games, and usually if im not playing games im making art or something, and they think thats a game, i tell them its photoshop and they dont understand why, then they just leave

what really pisses me off is when im playing a game, and ive been playing for atleast an hour they ask me if i did my homework, i say yes, and i dont lie, then they say oh yeah well you have to do extra homework for extra credit, i say there is no extra credit, and this happens with math homework usually, so my mom calls my dad asking him why he didnt assign me any extra math homework, he just says im smart enough now i dont need it, this happens because i used to really suck at math, and now im very good at it, and they would assign me extra math hw if i would get bad test grades, now my test grades are good and they still want to give me extra math so its annoying,

but usually my mom is downstairs working hard on her computer doing rea estate so she doesnt bother me, doing your homework first really helps because then you get your parents off your case,

the thing that sucks tho is that they make me go to bed at 9 pm, and on weekends i can go to bed only at 10:30pm, and they made up some stupid rule that they think getting off the computer half an hour before sleep helps the brain, its retarded, i just get back on the comp after they go to sleep and play late at night, but once i was caught so its harder to do that now

Yeah I always hate that. "Do your homework first." I always just say I did it when they get home from work then I do it at like 9.

There was some report on computers and sleep sometime ago. It said that you should turn the computer off 1 hour before you go to sleep, because the glow from the screen makes your mind think it's daytime, so it says "No. Sleep bad, must stay up. Day is here. Bad bed and tantalizing sleep!"

i do my Homework before i get on my computer, but when i do i have the same problem, my parents say Why can't you spend another 30min on your homework, and i say I've finished it how can i work on it more? and then they say well you should work ahead and i say they don't tell us what we are doing. then they get mad at me and say i spend to much time on the computer and i should be studying. Its so damn annoying.

the 30 min thing my parents due is total bullshit, who cares if my mind thinks its day, sometimes late at night, like once on a friday i stayed up till 1 my mind did think it was day, so i didnt feel sleepy in front of the computer, but once i got off i just fell right asleep, i can also make my body go to sleep involuntarily, so it doesnt effect me at all

Neon, you're whipped. Not only parents-whipped, but PC-whipped.
