I don't know the situation but my impression is matt is a good kid with his head on straight. Give him some space to live and experience. I would let him show you that he was raised well and is responcible.

Matt is always threatening to leave and always blames his parents. But he's still here. Since he lives on campus, it would appear that his parents are letting him live and experience life. Wouldn't they make him commute to school if they really wanted to control his life?

If I read the original posting correctly, Matt's parents requested that he NOT post photos of THEIR property on the internet. They do not owe anyone an explantion for their request and a mature, responsible person would not have difficulty honoring such a small request. What does he do but to post the photos anyway and then removes the photos after someone views them and informs his parents. Another member then decides to post a photo that they know Matt's parents do not want posted. Very mature. THAT photo is still posted. Wow, what 'controlling' parents they must be to expect their kid to respect their wishes. Wonder what other unreasonable requests they have made?
