i'm on my wii u's internet browser and i'm not supposed to. my parents do not know that i still continue my addiction and talk to friends online on here. i was caught 4 times betraying them and i was incredibly stupid enough to find out that videos on the wii u work, and to form friendships. strong friendships online. my parents HATE people online- no matter who it is. i've built great friendships, and i'm very willing to show them how to block the web browser on the wii u, but it's the friends. i don't wanna ever lose the friends i built friendships with. they're great people- people i feel happiness with. people i enjoy being around. but i STILL do the conversations and actions that get me in trouble- aaaaaagh. i'm putting myself through this. i have to give it up but i just can't. i have no smartphone at all because of the conversations, and i can't talk to my friends at all. literally at all because my parents think ALL OF YOU are predators. i put myself in between a rock and a hard place ot and i have no clue what to do. i lost my gaming pc for this reason. i don't wanna lose them.
what do i do |

| i put myself here though. and tbh i dunno if this is even victimizing or not. i have to stop portraying them as bad parents. second time i was caught i was SAVED. i was sending pics of myself. and not good pics either. i learned from that, and i learned to not do it again, but my addiction still got to me. it's making me lie and disobey. it's making me fall deeper into a hole i already dug myself. it's not an okay addiction and it will never be one |

| i want the gospel to start changing my life. i want the gospel to lead me. even if i've faded away, i'm still disobeying my parents. i have to obey them wether i like it or not. and so far the past 2 years i've been doing everything but that, and i feel like total crap now because i'll be losing something i never in my life would want to give up- great, amazing friends. but i might have to do that sacrifice. |

Same with my mom, my dad knows not everyone is a threat online, but he advises me to be cautious and learn from mistakes.
MY MOM on the other hand, doesn't want me to reach out, she thinks everyone is a 30 year old creep who wants to meet up (although, I would NEVER agree to a meet up, even if they were my age, local, etc...) |

| Roblox is a community (not the best one) which gives a sense of surrounding and comfort from these friends you talk about. Memories are made, good and bad. I hate to say though, that being dependent on anything too much can and will restrict you from better opportunities. Take it from a guy who thought it was good and liked the benefits. As for your parents, you can't always make them trust you, you can only act and wait. There are some risks you need to take, but like me, I recommend you get off your wii and view Roblox as an hobby that comes last in your life; the things you will expierience outside are absolutely amazing. And they suck. But it's what self discipline is about. Good luck. It's the best choice I made |

it's a situation between god and satan
not obeying my parents is going against god's word. i have to obey it no matter what because he is going to save me. i've just been feeling a lackluster connection with him. i haven't felt his presence and it makes me feel even more empty. i was supposed to give up my addiction early november- that was my plan. but, i failed. me disobeying my parents makes me support satan, and i just can't do that. but i also can't give up strong bondmanships either. |

That sounds like a really difficult situation, sorry you have to put up with it. If your parents don't want you on here and you feel like obeying them is your top priority, I would recommend talking to them about it. You recognize that there's an issue, and that's a start. Try working with your parents, maybe asking them to set a lock on the hours you play or restricting websites. I completely understand you not wanting to lose your friends though. If you have friends irl(and i don't say that to be mean at all, some people just don't), you can at least spend more time with them. In the long run your irl friends are going to be the ones who are there for you when you need them, not your online friends. Since you really want to listen to your parents, you should try slowly disconnecting yourself from your online friends. I'm a Christian like you, and totally agree with you wanting to obey your parents like that. I'd pray about it, ask for guidance and all that.

also, disobeying your parents doesn't make you support satan it's a big problem you're having, and admitting to it and wanting to fix it just goes to show that you want to do the right, christian thing everyone has sins, and some people just struggle with certain ones more than others
