Hello,
My parents don't want me to have a laptop in my room; at home, there is a computer in the living room, one for my father, one for my brother, and I would really like to have one because everyone watches what I'm doing on the computer, and they are always behind me watching TV or reading books, it annoys me. Can you tell me what I should say to them?
Thank you.

I have the same problem; I want a laptop for myself and for exactly the same reasons as you. But the problem is that I always have good grades. I'm in 8th grade and I've been the top of my class for the first two terms. I’ve dropped a bit for the third term, but I think I’ll be second. Even though I always get good grades, they don’t want to give me one. So why do I want a laptop? Well, simply because all my friends have one, and especially because my parents are always complaining about the games (like Guild Wars) that I put on the computer. Plus, they are always looking over my shoulder, which bothers me a bit when I'm on MSN, for example. Other than that, I have nothing to hide, but there you go. What can I do?
I would really like to have one because it's often taken (my brother does his homework on it) and my parents keep saying no no and no!!!!!! I have good grades....
I don't know what to do.....
