Acctually yea there is a way that parents can read your ims...one of my friends Sam's parents do that to him i think it is way too drastic. I cant swear or anything when im talking to him online and when a word does slip out he has to block me so he doesnt get in trouble...it really sux...just sit down with your dad and say somethin like "dad im 14 years old i can take care of myself and i make good descisions...i think its a little drastic what you are doing monitoring my ims and stuff...etc." If that doesnt work just somehow try to prove to him that you are responsible.
Hope i helped
mucho love

Your dad is looking out in your best interest. You should trust him. He wants whats best. Although I understand where you are coming from. I have a nosy mother. She does exactly the same thing. But dont worry. Everything always comes out well in the end. And on AIM no there isnt a way to do that I believe. Trust is a big thing. You must earn it. The only way to do that is to give him somthing to trust you for. Such as...If he says dont go somewhere and you do it, he will lose trust for you. Follow what he says and you will be A O K!

I dealt with the parent-of-a-teen paranoia for all of my teenage years. And it's not over yet. Basically, my dad thinks that anyone I talk to on the internet who's not a friend of mine from school is most likely a 42 year old man with the motive of stalking and molesting me. So to make him ease off and give em a little privacy in my aim conversations, I basically told him that I only talk to my friends, that it's just people I know in real life.

If you have AOL and not just AIM then yes your parents can see what you are writing to your frineds but im not sure how to turn it off. And about getting your dad to trust you again. Just give him reasons to believe that he can trust you. Ask him if you can go out some night with some friends and he gives you a curfew be right on time or even a little earlier. Just do little things that makes him believe that you are responsible.

No, they have to download a certain program, its illegal to have so i doubt they did it. The only way they'll see what you're saying is if they loook at your conversation while having it.

Ya there is a way that your parents can see what you have written on AIM....i dont know how to disable it i have never had that problem and some of my freinds have that....play around wiht a lot of the settings for AIM and look for any thing that says history!

There is software that allows people to record everything that takes place - from your reports, to email to IMing people. This software can be installed either directly on your computer, or if you're on a network, on another system that can monitor all your activity. You will never know it is running.
As far as gaining more trust, well... do things that prove you're trustworthy. Ok, yeah... that's an oversimplification, but I don't know your dad, so I don't know what he thinks - it could just be general parent-of-a-teen paranoia, or he could have other motives... I really don't know... but you're best off proving that you're dependable and responsible with what you choose to do and how you do it.

the only we he can se what you'r saying is if he is standing over your shoulder watching you type..other wise i don't think he can,

no, he cant read your conversations on aol. most computers dont save them unless you have AIM+ then there is history. you can clear out the history by going under your AIM+ and clicking on history then cleaning that out. if your really worried about him reading your convos then you can also go into my documents there should be a folder called filelib, click on it and click on your screen name. if anything comes up delete it then clean out the trashcan.
also, go into the c drive. and find where your AIM folder is..there also should be a folder that has your AIM name on it somewhere..it may be inside a folder..so check them all..once again go through it and delete anything in there. then clean out the trash can! :)
as for trust. do your chores, do your homework. when you get good grades on tests bring them home and show him. when you go out, come home a half an hour before curfue... when your going to be late coming home call him before hand so he knows.
