| Sep 20, 2018 at 20:22 | comment | added | baldPrussian | @Horkrine thanks for the input! I thought I had said that in the third paragraph from the bottom - should I have included more verbiage to that effect or did not address this suggestion? It's a good suggestion; I'd like to be sure that I address this appropriately. Thanks! | |

| Sep 20, 2018 at 14:26 | comment | added | Horkrine | I like this answer but would like to add that if OP's parents / guardians say no, being calm is the best possible thing anyone can do. Back when I was a kid, my parents would often say no to certain requests purely to see what my reaction would be / how I handled rejection. If I flipped out, I never got that thing I wanted. 99/100 times I was calm and they "changed their mind". Just wanted to tac this on here :) | |
| Sep 19, 2018 at 19:57 | comment | added | E. Huckabee | Fantastic answer! It's not that big of a deal. I don't have anything to hide so It won't affect me much. The problem is, I like being able to do what I want when I want. Its not like I sit around watching YouTube all day. There are certain things I do that I won't be able to do anymore. For instance, I get a text from a friend and I generally like to respond quickly. I wont be able to do that on weekdays anymore. I like being able to play a game while I wait for a download or watch something when Im gearing down for bed. Those things will be removed and I feel like its kind of unfair. | |
