Why Do People...Read Over Our Shoulders?

One of the biggest invasions of a teenagers' privacy. Not because you're doing something 'bad' but because they're YOUR personal messages. Don't go snooping in my phone either, and while you're at it, stop watching me type my password.

Where did our manners go? Far away apparently, because what was once something we were happy to keep to ourselves seems to have become public property overnight!

So how do we explain it? Because we're Gen Y, we're all open and it's okay?! Nope I don't think that's it. We just got lazy at hiding how nosey we are. I see my mum do it all the time...
1 New Message..."Ah, who's that from??" Don't ask me why she asks, we all know she saw who it was from before I did.

But what do we expect? In this day and age it's hard to keep anything hush.
So do we just deal with it? I guess so, because lets face it, curiousity is a funny thing - everyone wants to know everyone's business.

Just remember, while you're reading over someone's shoulder, someone's looking over yours...
