Why do parents relate everything back to tech? You've been late a lot? Must be your tech. Having trouble handing in work on time? Obviously your tech. You want to keep the door to your room locked for some privacy? Must be your tech's fault. You've been feeling down lately? What other cause than your tech, seriously. You've been isolating yourself from people, and you suffer from anxiety? I do not see ANY other possible explanation than this than your tech.
And this is my school computer. I've already had my phone taken away for a month for being late too much. But now they're suddenly saying I can't have my SCHOOL computer, that is solely used for SCHOOL work up in my room. There is no other place I can reliably work. I live in a house of six people, and every room is filled. I value my privacy, and there is no other place I can work uninterrupted, at least for the most part. For the past TWO weeks I have been consistently using my computer in my room. You were FULLY aware I was doing it. Now suddenly that was never acceptable? I should have known it was wrong? Because god forbid I ever use the internet ever.
If this was a consequence of my problems, at least I would understand why they do it. But my dad has emphasized the main reason they take this away is because it will solve all my problems. I have tried to get an answer out of them. Take away my only method of communication, limit my only way of getting schoolwork done, forbid me from using tech at all (even though no such restrictions are put on my siblings), I would at least accept it, but just TELL ME WHY you are doing this. If only you would TELL me, then I could accept this a little better. But all you will explain is that tech is inherently the root of all my problems, and taking everything away will ultimately solve everything.
Because yes, of course. It all makes sense. God, how could I not have realized this TRUTH YOU HAVE BESTOWED ON ME.

Salty
You know how we all do stupid things? You know how at the bottom of a bag of pretzels there's always a mound of salt? And you know what's coming next, right?...

Well, you mostly said it was because you are late or not doing your work, so be on time and get all your work done.
They are doing it to get a desired behavior out of you because they don’t want to slap you around.
First world problems.
Many kids don’t have any tech and their parents really abuse them, so maybe if you try to look at it that way, you’ll see it’s not so bad.
