Polonius, Hamlet, and Privacy

No, you dont have the right to read any thing that was not given directly to you! if you have a question about whats going on with your child, it's your responsibility to open the channels of communication. We all live to learn from our mistakes thats why we only have one life. if a parent jumps in to every thing that happens to their child you are not letting your child learn. It was not ok for ophelia's father to assume some thing of a man who had no intension on leaving Ophelia for a princess. If a father who cared for his daughter would just confront hamlet and ask him how he feels about ophelia; every thing would of been avoided. When a parent intrudes in some one elses life;it can destroy a relationship between the father and the person he/she is on love with. Some time a parent can be completly wrong about the situation and make their child angry or depresed. Thats why a parent should stay out of their childs relation ships. Parents could be worng only because they are scared for thier child and they just want to protect their child from getting hurt by another person, but some times parents can be blind and not see the real love between them.
