Your parents can see who you texted and who texted you too. They have to call your cell company for that information though, it's not really included in the bill, unless if they requested it.

Good luck!

As the user below me stated, they can see the numbers and times on the bill, but they can not see what is actually said - on the bill.

And I could be wrong about this next part because I saw it on an episode of Law & Order and even though the actual cases are false, a lot of what they do is possible...

The phone company should have archives of the content of text messages (not every text message ever sent and received, but maybe the past 400 or 4000 or something like that).

I don't know whether or not they can release that information to your parents, though. It may just be for police and stuff.

I guess I could be wrong, but unless your parents go to the phone company and ask for the content, there is no way of them getting it. And I don't even know that the phone company has it/would release it.

It's possible for them to look at the texting bill and see what numbers you texted to and when, and what numbers texted you and when, but they can't see the content of the text message itself as far as I know- except for on the phone. C:
