My brother purchased me a video game, and I've kind of been playing it a lot lately. My mom thinks I play too much so she took it away, but why does she think she can do this to me? My BROTHER bought me the game and not HER. She has no right to take the game away from me. Why does she think she can do whatever she wants when she has no right?
Answer:
If you live in her home, she has each right. She is probably just looking out for your best interest in keeping you from wasting all of your time playing with that game. Remember, 98% of the time, parents are doing what’s truly best for their children. Kids are often just too young to understnad. I’m 24 and I have the ability to see now how all the things over the course of growing up that my parents did to upset me was for my own good. Have a tiny faith in your mom, and ask her what you can do to get the game back. But trust me, you don't want to pull the “you don't have the right” card, because she doesn't have to give you anything but adequate clothing, shelter and warm clothes. I am sure you don't want her to tell you the things you don't have the “right” to demand or even ask for.
Answer:
There should be some limits to how much you are playing video games, so that you can spend time doing homework, chores, hanging with friends, hobbies, exercise. If you do nothing but play video games, how will you learn what hobbies you’re interested, find friends that you enjoy spending time with, or learn new skills? If you are a mature girl, you should realize why she’s concerned, right?
Answer:
What right do you have sleeping in your mother's home and eating your mother's food when you didn't even pay for it?
It is a parent's responsibility to do what is best for the future of their kids. So they house them and feed them and cloth them and do what is necessary to guide them down the right path to success in life.
Unless you’re going to be a professional game player, it might be better for you to do some homework of just go out and get some fresh air.
In about 15 years, you’ll realize your mother's wisdom and thank her. Until then, all of what I stated will probably be crap to you.
It is the way of kids and parents. Always has been. Always will be.
Answer:
she DOES have each right to do whatever she wants. first of all she is your mother, second of all she is older and wiser , third of all it's her home her rules and since you’re under the age of 18 (i'm assuming) you have to follow her rules. just because my daughter receives a gift from someone doesn't mean that if she’s acting up that i can't take it away as punishment. and don't forget she’s your mom and she deserves some respect. maybe she could have asked you to cease playing so much and then if you didn't listen she takes the game but still it's her home her rules. you’ve to show some respect. and again she has a right to do what she feels is best. that's what being a GOOD parent is… making choices that you think will benefit or instruct your children
Answer:
Are you playing the video game on the game system she bought, that is plugged into the Television she purchased, that is plugged into the wall socket powered by electricity she pays for that is in the wall of the home that she purchased?
Of course she has the ability to take it away from you.
Answer:
she is your MOTHER and can take it away if she wants, especially if she feels you play too much. Expand your horizons… read a book or find a hobby… something other than video games. Look.. I was a teen once too and used to think things my parents did was unfair…but as I got older I understood more.
Answer:
Oh BOO HOO Mommy is mean to me. WAAAA! Get a life, it sounds like you have a great mother who is concerned about your welfare. Sounds like she should be searching your room also! You sound like quite the conniving tiny brat. You mom not only has the right to take away your toys, she has the legal right to protect you from anything she deems is harmful to you. So get over it!
Answer:
It doesn't matter who payed for it, when you give something to some one it is now theirs, when my Mum annoys me can I throw a childish fit and take all her christmas presents back, or hit her with an object that I payed for, I payed for it so no one can tell me otherwise, right?
I suppose stay at home Mums also have no rights, they pay for nothing, it all belongs to the man, so why should he let her eat his food? but it's a different story when you're on the other end of it.
Answer:
She is your mom and therefore she has the right. It just floors me how self important children are now saying my parents have no right to tell me no or ground me good lord. it seems to me our society in all their meddling is forcing parents to raise a bunch of spolied brats.
Answer:
You're joking right?
Because you’re a child! That's why! It doesn't matter who bought it. If she took it away, suck it up and take your consequence.
She has every right. You my dear don't have any right to be so disrespectful to your mom.
Answer:
Let's see because she is your mother and she’s the one that’s in charge of you, if she thinks you are spending too much time playing a video game she has every right to take it away no matter who bought it for you.
Answer:
If your under 18 then its her stuff not yours. You can not legally own anything until then. So even that automobile when you purchase it is really your parents.
Answer:
Because she does - she has her rights to EVERYTHING in her house, including you. Stop being a brat and do some chores around the house.
Answer:

Answer:
As long as you live in her house she owns the air you breathe
