Is my mother overreacting?
Well, to cut the story short, I met these really nice girls on twitter (I'm a girl btw) and they have a lot of the same interests as me. I have talked to them on there a lot and they are so kind. We have started skyping but I told them a fake name, not my real name. And I don't talk much about my life or any personal info or any secrets. We just talk about music we like in general and some celebrities we crush on. My mother walked in on me talking to them, and then she told me to turn my laptop off, then she overreacted and stuff. I tried to explain to her that they are REALLY NICE and I just see them as online friends who I discuss interests with when I'm bored, not like REAL CLOSE friends or anything. Like I don't trust people that well, so it took me a very long time to actually warm up to these girls but they are really nice to me and I don't have that many friends in school so it is nice to go back home and talk to them (they live in Brazil btw) because I've never really had the experience of chatting to girls about interests, I mean, I spend my whole spare time either studying or playing video games? Now I am feeling so much happier, but my mother just doesn't understand. I know that she doesn't want me talking to strangers because it's dangerous...but it's just aargh. I don't know what to do. But they are like, not paedos or anything because they are teenagers (seen them on cam) and they treat me nicely and like a friend of their own. Your view? :(
