Should Parents Snoop on their Teenagers?

What is snooping? The definition is "to pry into other people's business of affairs, especially in a furtive way." I have a full discussion of snooping in my Newsletter dated December 2006 (Vol. 3 Issue 4). But the question arises periodically; I've been contacted twice by TV news stations on this topic!

We have a responsibility to take care of our children and it becomes harder as the children age. The balance between trust and supervision is a delicate one, and needs constant revisiting.

So, I ask you: Would you snoop on your children?
