Zee, I am not the girl's age, I have children older than the girl myself, so I see it from the young persons viewpoint and from a parents. I think he has very valid points, I don't think that can be argued with. But he didn't just take the computer away from her, did he. I think he would be justified to do that. For me, he has invalidated his reasoning by his actions. Sometimes we may feel so p*ssed off and frustrated by someone's ingratitude that we feel like getting down to their level in our actions...we mat feel like it and people wouldn't necessarily blame us...but it doesn't make it right. Two wrongs never make a right.
I do think he's probably a good parent though...but that was a display of bad parenting though

But clearly taking it away from her in the past didn't work, because of the rant she posted about him online for all her friends to see. That's why I agree with his actions, more than anything. This is a man who was pushed into taking a more serious stance, it's just that we, the audience online, have only seen him at this stage and so it's quite easy to assume he must be like that all the time.
