about

I'm 18 and about to enter my sophomore year of college. Feel free to ask me questions about anything- I'll try to help in the best way possible! :)

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

My parents have seen me on this site, and they really don't mind me being on it. I just say that it's an advice site and they're like "Oh cool, you're helping out some people, huh?" ..or something like that.
I would be kind of embarassed if my parents looked at my site and saw answers to the sex questions, because of course, that is a little embarassing.
I just keep my column to myself and not tell the whole world about my page because I don't really want people to read some of the answers I give. Some of them are personal, and come from things that have actually happened to me, and I don't really want a ton of people that I know to know some of the personal things in my life.

Overall, my parents don't care that I have this site, but I wouldn't really like if they read some of these answers I've given. Just a little embarassing. =)

(Rating: 4) Thank you for taking time to answer. I can sure understand how some of the questions/answers are better off being kept private. Just don't want to lose any columnists if parents found out. :)
