While you're sitting there stewing in your teenage angst, consider
this:

1) Your father has every right to do what he did.
2) EVERYTHING under his roof is HIS. HE probably bought it.
3) Something tells me what you're really trying to do is delete the
evidence before he gets a chance to see what you've been downloading.
4) We have absolutely NO RIGHT to help you thwart your father's
disciplinary measures.
5) Not only would we have no right to do that, it would be WRONG of us
to help you fight your father.
6) If you're over the age of 18, you need to get out of your house and
stop sucking on your mommie's titties. Then you can do what you want
to with "your labtop (sic)".
7) If you're not, shut up, and take yer punishment like a man anyway.

If you can find a way to have him let you ONTO the computer then simply go to
control panel, create another admin account, log out, using the other account
disable his p/word, log out again go back to his account and erase the one
that you created.

achapman10,
Pat attention! Please follow this. Your dad pass worded your computer
because he doesn't trust you. You then asked this group to get around dad's
authority. Some mis-informed people have responded with work arounds in
direct response to your question. Following this advice with only get you
in deeper with your dad and prolong the recovery of your relationship.
What you need to do is tell your dad what you need to do, and negotiate a
temporary use of the password. Get in the habit of behaving properly and
demonstrate responsibly and over time, he'll give you back control.

How can so many otherwise very intelligent people screw up
something so simple so badly? If you stick a computer
keyboard in front of most people, they'll suddenly drop
30 points off their IQs. Much like placing a "Pork Barrel"
bill in front of a politician: He'll forget all about
"cooperation" the minute he counts the zeroes before the
decimal point.

You are an idiot. First and foremost he is not being stupid because he is
resorting to the Internet to get around a "block aid" Second why does his
father have "every right to do what he did"? when it is THE BOY'S laptop not
the fathers. I don't think said father uses it, i don't think he maintains
it, i don't think he has anything to do with it other than the fact that it
belongs to his son. Third if he wants to delete stuff off of HIS computer
then he has "every right" to do so. There is no part of the bill of rights
that says "people cant help other people thwart other people. That would be
ridiculous. It would not be wrong of us because we have no idea what
situation he is in all we know is that his father is stopping him from fully
using his computer. The next thing is that most 18 year olds stay in the
house longer than 18 years. Did you move out of the house on your 18th
birthday? did your parents ever take stuff away from you and you tried to get
around it? It is NORMAL by the way NOW kids tend to stay in the house till
they are out of COLLEGE because they are SMARTER THAN YOU. The last thing you
said is so wrong i cant even believe you said it. you said "If you're not,
shut up, and take yer punishment like a man anyway." that is a disgusting
thing to say, you are not only adding the the stereotypical man but you are
contradicting your self anyways. Most men are actually more sensitive than
women. You are over all just a stupid, uneducated, idiotic, old, republican
that probably believes in the old, obsolete ways of religion and other stupid
things that go along with them. Get the hell off of the Internet, you might
hurt your brain!

1) Friend, I must ask you to start using a little standard
punctuation, such as:
a) Add two spaces after a period.
b) Add a newline after the end of a paragraph.
c) Use concise paragraphs.
d) Use commas to separate phrases of a sentence which are related, and
semi-commas when the subject of a sentence is changed or expanded.

2) The traditional concepts of Patrinomy are still useful today, nor
have they ill-served Mankind. As long as the OP is living under his
father's roof, he is required both by the Law, and by tradition, to
live by his father's rules. If he cannot learn this lesson NOW, he
will NEVER learn to live with anyone else.

3) The 5th Commandment is the ONLY one with a PROMISE attached to it:
"You shall honor your father and your mother, so that your days may be
long in the land." God tells mankind everywhere that if he honors and
obeys his parents wishes, his years of life will be extended.

4) These concepts are not up for discussion.

4) I am a registered Democrat, not a Republican.

5) In any case, neither Christ Himself nor His Church are subject to
your childish and foolish judgment.

6) A man older than 18 who is still staying at home needs to be tossed
out of his fathers' house in the most violent way possible.

7) To define such sucking off of your mommie's udders after your 18th
birthday as "normal" is extremely odious to anyone with any sense. I
assure you, your Daddy wants you out of his house YESTERDAY. Your
words show me that it is your Mommie whom you are hanging on to. She
will let you stay there as long as she can, especially if you're an
only-son.

8) Grow up, son. Show a little testicular fortitude, and be the MAN
you are supposed to be. Get away from your Mommie.

9) I don't "probably" believe in the old ways of Christianity, I most
definitely DO, nor am I ashamed of this faith. I try my best to NOT
be ashamed of my faith when I stand before Christ. This means I obey
His teachings.

10) I am an older man of 62+ years. I'm certainly not ashamed of my
age. I earned each grey hair on my head. When you've earned yours,
you may also speak to punks like yourself the way I am now speaking to
you. Don't like this? Get off the Earth entirely: 'cause that's the
way it's gonna be, whether you like it or not, until the day you
expire.

Finally, you may go to Hell or not, as far as I am concerned. You
have nothing productive or helpful to add to this conversation. Take
your hatred and bigotry to another forum, please.

I would ask that this discussion be taken else where please? We are seeing
only one side of the story; what does "annoyed" mean? There are always two
sides to every story; who is right or wrong is not a matter for any of us to
decide.

As far as the comments about faith and religion, neither has a place in any
computer related forum. I'm not a hypocrit, I've been teaching religion
classes for over 35 years and I know that like many other things, we must be
tolerant of the convictions of others.
