Stella, 16:

I think it's meaningful to let parents see our Moments.Some say that without parents' involvement(参与),they feel free when sharing things online.However,as teenagers,sometimes we do need our parent's guidance,especially in terms of social experiences.What's more,shutting them off my make the generation gap (代沟)bigger and bigger,while inviting them in can help us to communicate and feel closer to each other.

Denny,16:

Most of my friends keep your parents out of their Moments.They argue that if their parents get involved,they will feel upset.However I feel happy when my parents comment (评论)on my posts in my Moments.It shows their love and care for me.It also makes them happy and stops them from worrying about me.We'll leave them when we grow up.Why not cherish(珍惜) every opportunity to interact(互动) with them?

Robin,16:

I don't allow my parents to see my Moments.Everyone needs some privacy and we all have our own secrets and lifestyles.If my parents could see my posts there,they may push me around with your ideas,nagging(唠叨) at me to do as they wished,which would be unacceptable to me even though it would show their love and care.After all,appropriate distance unites the family better.
