Hey there,
Just trying to get some advice on how to address my daughters nosiness. I'm not sure if this is an age thing (she's 10) or a boredom thing or what but it's getting really annoying. Anytime I'm on the computer she'll come around and act like she wants a hug or to ask me something but she just wants to see what I'm doing on there. Or if I'm reading an email or text she'll sit by me and peek at it and try to read it. I don't look at inappropriate things so I'm not worried about that, I think it's just the principle. Sometimes there are things I don't want her to see or read like this past week I've been testing my mom back and forth trying to help her plan a surprise visit to us. So obviously I don't want my daughter seeing this. I tell her to not be so nosy and stop trying to read my texts or emails, that they don't have anything to do with you so you have no reason reading them. But that hasn't seem to stop her. I don't know what the deal is. She doesn't do this with her dad. Any advice would be appreciated.
