Hey guys...I'm Greg and I'm 15... I need to ask you guys a question. Not neccessarily magic-related, but it is about theory11 and video sharing sites... By reading this, please don't feel as if I'm coming to you for my personal problems, just asking your opinion on a certain subject.
Okay, today I asked my dad if I can make a video (for a theory11 battle) on his laptop (macbook pro...with the webcam) and he refused, then stated his reason...the reason was that if I make a video,I'm obviously gonna post it on the Internet... YouTube or vimeo. And he co plainer that those sites bring viruses. Funny part is that I've never heard of anyone that got a virus from those sites, and I keep telling him that sites like these don't bring viruses... I guess he's being a bit stubborn about this... another thing I'd like to address is that my dad absolutely HATES the fact that I practice and perform magic, so he's trying to get me to quit by keeping me away from computer where I can have access to theory11...he keeps saying theory11 brings viruses, as well as all the other magic sites I visit...
In Case you're wondering, I don't have a computer, because my dad smashed mine. We have a few co puters in the house, and I cannot touch a single one because he's afraid I will bring viruses... He is way too over protective and says it can only be used for homework...COME ON!!! How old am I??? 4??
So it seems that this thread has no point, but I'll state it now...I'm just asking for you guys to post your personal opinion on the "fact" that YouTube, vimeo, and theory11 bring viruses...I plan on showing this thread to my dad and hopefuly change his opinion... I guess he's stuck in the 70's where parents are supposed to overprotective on their kids and not let them do anything...
Thank you very much...please respond
P.s. I use AIM on meebo, and he bans me from IMing just because he doesn't like it...umm, can I please you're opinions on this fact?
Once again, thank you for taking the time to read this...
