“…However, parents might also resort to covert monitoring, or "snooping," such as searching through belongings and reading e-mails without permission. When parents suspect adolescent dishonesty and problem behavior, or sense a rift in the relationship, they may not be content to rely on youths' voluntary disclosures (McKinney, 1998;Tang & Dong, 2006; see also Lavy, Mikulincer, & Shaver, 2010;Vinkers, Finkenauer, & Hawk, 2011). Qualitative evidence suggests that parents wrestle with the appropriateness of such actions (McKinney, 1998).…”

Parents can use solicitation (asking questions) and control (disclosure rules) to obtain information about adolescents, but only if youths comply. Snooping might uncover additional information, but also strongly violates privacy expectations. Three studies of parents and adolescents examined distinctions between snooping, solicitation, and control. Differences existed in terms of factor structure and frequency (Studies 1-2), links to perceived invasion (Study 1), correlations with problematic communication, behavior, and relationships (Study 2), and parent-adolescent (dis)agreement about acceptability (Study 3). Snooping is a relatively infrequent monitoring behavior, compared to solicitation and control, but appears to be a stronger indicator of problems in adolescent and family functioning. We discuss implications regarding the necessity and appropriateness of particular parental monitoring behaviors.

“…Respecting children's need for privacy as they grow can enable them to fulfill age-appropriate developmental needs for individuation (Tang 2006), and encourage them to go beyond the acquisition of "thin" procedural skills to develop a facility for deeper, "connected thinking" (Davis 2001, 252). …”

From the Beginning: Children as Subjects and Agents of Surveillance

This article examines the claims made by surveillance entrepreneurs selling surveillance to parents and government agencies responsible for children. Technologies examined include pre-natal testing, baby monitors and nanny cams, RFID-enabled clothing, GPS tracking devices, cell phones, home drug and semen tests, and surveillance toys. We argue that governments, both in the contest of health care and education, use surveillance to identify and "manage" genetic or behavioural deviations from the norm. Parents, on the other hand, are encouraged to buy surveillance technologies to keep the child "safe". Although there is a secondary emphasis on parental convenience and freedom, surveillance is predominately offered as a necessary tool of responsible and loving parenting. Entrepreneurs also claim that parents cannot trust their children to behave in pro-social ways, and must resort to spying to overcome children's tendency to lie and hide their bad behaviour. We conclude by offering some ideas to rein in the variety and complexity of the issues raised and to help order controversies in this domain.

“…The private information and belongings of the adolescents are considered as the property of their parents and young people are obliged to obey their parents' expectations (Cheung et al, 2013). From this perspective, parents can view adolescents' privacy claims as a strategy to hide information (Tang & Dong, 2006). In this study, although the mothers are aware of the boundaries, almost all of them ignore it.…”

“…Ergenlerin "özel" bilgi ve mülkleri bu nedenle büyük ölçüde ebeveynlerin mülkiyetindedir ve gençler ebeveyn beklentilerine uyma yükümlülüğündedirler (Cheung vd., 2013). Bu perspektiften bakıldığında ebeveynler ergenlerin mahremiyet iddialarını, bilgileri gizlemek için bir strateji olarak görebilirler (Tang & Dong, 2006). Türkiye'de de benzer biçimde aile yapısı özerklik ve bireysellikten çok, yakın bağlar, sadakat, uyum ve karşılıklı bağlılığa dayalıdır (Kağıtçıbaşı & Sunar, 1992;Okman-Fişek, 1982;Sunar & Fişek, 2005).…”

Öz. Bu çalışmada ergen annelerinin çocuklarını izleme deneyimleri mahremiyet ve gizlilik bağlamında ele alınmıştır. Bunun için öncelikle annelerin ergenle ilgili bilgiye ne ölçüde sahip oldukları, bilgiye ulaşmak için hangi yöntemleri kullandıkları ve bunların annelerin mahremiyet ve özel alana yönelik anlamlandırmaları bağlamında ne şekilde ortaya çıktığının anlaşılması amaçlanmştır. Yorumlayıcı fenomenolojik yöntemle yapılan çalışmada toplam 10 ergen annesiyle derinlemesine bireysel görüşmeler yapılmış, elde edilen veriler yorumlayıcı fenomenolojik analizle değerlendirilmiştir. Araştırma sonuçları annelerin ergenle ilgili mahremiyet ve kişisel alan sınırlarının belirsiz olduğunu, ergenle ilgili bilgiye hakimiyetin ergenle açık ve güvene dayalı iletişim, ergenin cinsiyeti, geçmiş yaşantılar ve babanın ebeveynlik rolü ile ilişkili olduğunu, son olarak annelerin ergenle ilgili bilgi almak için, açık ve kapalı bilgi alma stratejilerinin bir arada kullanıldığı çoklu bilgi sağlama stratejilerini tercih ettiklerini göstermektedir.Anahtar Kelimeler: Ebeveyn izlemesi, anne-ergen ilişkileri, mahremiyet, kişisel alan Abstract. In this study, mothers' experiences of monitoring their adolescents is examined in terms of privacy and personal space. We aimed to understand how much information mothers have about their adolescents, which strategies they use to access information and how they experience the process in terms of their perceptions of privacy and personal space. Adopting an interpretive phenomenological approach, in-depth interviews were conducted with 10 adolescents' mothers and interpretive phenomenological analysis was used for data analysis. Results of the study revealed that Mothers lack a definition for what is private space, privacy or personal space for their adolescents. Mothers' sense of control over the information is related to Open communication and mutual trust between mothers and their adolescents, the gender of the adolescent, the parental role of the father and negative past experiences about adolescence. Finally mothers prefer multiple monitoring strategies in different combinations to monitor their adolescents.
