Hi all, this is yg. I consider this a question, I am also kind of looking for opinions. I am asking here instead of the mod forum because I'd like answers from those who are mods, and those who may not be yet. There is no right or wrong answer, so please, honest opinions only.
In the last month and a half this question, or a version of this question has come up and it bothers me. 'How can I hide that I have been on advicenators?' I assume it was meant from parents.
I would like to know if others have this problem.
Do you have to hide that you use the site?
If so why?
What do you think would make it acceptable to your parents?
Would you be embarrassed for your parents to see the site?
If so is it because of questions asked?
Questions you've asked? Or just the questions in general?
Answers given?
YOUR answers given, or just everyones answers?
Has anyone, besides myself, (who talked to both my kids about it), Talked to their parents about BECOMING an advicenator?
I think it is a great way to initiate conversation
about topics you may be embarrassed to discuss with a parent about yourself. I wonder if anyone has done that?
I think I have plagued you with enough questions for now. Thank you! :)yg
Hey YG!
I visit advicenators on both my personal computer in my bedroom and my family computer in the family room. I do not hide it on either one.
I would not be embarassed for my parents to see the site. I wouldn't particularly want them to see most of my questions and answers though, because I am a private person. It's not that I think they would disapprove, its just that I would feel invaded.
However, I have showed my mother the site before. Just briefly, she thought the whole idea was cool. So no worries I suppose.
I think the site does an excellent job of staying appropriate and professional. No worries there =)
(Rating: 5) I'm glad you don't have to hide you use the site. I do understand why some feel they have to though. Some of the questions and answers are probably not what parents might expect from their kids! We try our best to keep things appropriate. Stuff does sneak by now and then. Thanks so much for taking time to answer. I really appreciate it.
