Renita what are you asking me ? I don't see ant questions in your messages. Or have I missed them by any chance?

      Angelina if the parents are evil, there is always the nuclear option of bringing the authorities in. I don't think my parents would ever do anything of that sort. As I mentioned before, they are really good parents, except for the belt.

        Tasha what are you asking me ?

        How far can your parents go if they take off the belt in the car right before arrival?

        Angelina @Tasha has her own business and can certainly always buy another mobile phone financially if her parents come up with such ideas

        It's not about money. She must agree anyway. And it doesn't prevent running the business.

        Angelina but go to the locksmith and ask for a spare key for your chastity belt ...

        But she doesn't do it. Then what's a difference?

                Renita She must agree anyway.

                I agree to it because I chose to.

                  Renita How far can your parents go if they take off the belt in the car right before arrival?

                  With regards to the belt, they are very 'strict'. But not with other parts of life

                      Laura Okay so i logged on from the desktop, much better than the phone UI. Maybe I should start using the desktop for this task too

                          Tasha Okay so i logged on from the desktop, much better than the phone UI.

                          Yes, I know. Although flarum supports smartphones, I don't like it

                          Tasha But not with other parts of life

                          Are you free to do whatever you want as long as you have the belt on?
                          For example, go for a sleepover

                                Laura go for a sleepover

                                Going to a sleepover isn't common here, but I have went to my friends house to spend the night (I might be using the phrase "spend the night" wrongly, I only mean SFW intentions). It wasn't that big of a challenge.

                                I am not a party person so I haven't went for any late-night parties. I have travelled alone from different venues (when I was writing exams) at night, stayed at a hotel with friends too (although this was not really planned - we didn't have a means to get back home due to a protest happening)

                                    @Xander currently I want to focus on the business itself, not looking for a partner at the moment

                                    (Didn't want to clutter the introductions channel)

                                      Laura they haven't scolded me when I didn't. I always do tell them, just in case something happens to me, they know where I am. They don't seem to care much, I've went to hang out with both boys and girls, went to houses of boys for the day, they haven't said anything. They know very well I'm "protected". Never been allowed without the belt obviously

                                        They are strict about the "no going outside without the belt" policy. Where I go with the belt on they don't seem to care a lot. They do make me come back before it's night time - unless it was discussed before. I did get in trouble for that when I forgot to mention i would be staying at the school hostels for the night for finishing up decorations. They weren't too pleased with me the next day 😂

                                        Tasha currently I want to focus on the business itself,

                                        Why does it take all your time?

                                            Laura mainly because I love what i do am a workaholic (i do love it a bit too much). I'm not saying getting a relationship will make my business go down, but it would certainly mean I have less time. Also, I'm not attracted specifically to anyone at the moment so 🤷‍♀️ And I also feel 20 is a bit too young for being in a relationship (my opinion)

                                            I'm open to finding a partner, but I'm not actively looking for

                                            Edit: clarity

                                                Tasha I'm not saying getting a relationship will make my business go down, but it would certainly mean I have less time

                                                Then it's called self-employment, rather than business

                                                    Laura we normally use self employment when you work alone, business if you have employee, even part time. It's @Tasha case, so business seems correct

                                                        Renita But she doesn't do it. Then what's a difference?

                                                        i just wanted to point out that it is more absurd to believe that an adult woman can bypass a child safety lock on her smartphone just as badly as a chastity belt. you somehow make it sound like this.

                                                        Laura Then it's called self-employment, rather than business

                                                        self-employment is a business.

                                                        Laura Right, but if she had other employees, she would assign her work to them

                                                        the best bosses are the ones who work with you 😉
