Masturbation is not a common topic people talk about publicly. Many have divided opinions on masturbation, some think it’s completely normal, while some think otherwise.
A 15-year-old teenager from Atlanta, US, posted on Reddit’s legal section asking for advice. He wrote that his parents had installed cameras in his bedroom, intending to prevent him from masturbating. It led him feeling embarrassed, and that his privacy was ultimately destroyed.

He described that the cause of this act was when his father barged into his room without knocking, and he started screaming at the teenager. He then describes the situation saying,
“He (father) and my mom then sat me down and told me I’m not allowed to touch myself.”
The teenager also claimed the cameras have also been installed in the BATHROOM. WTF?Ā This was discovered because he noticed an Amazon package delivered to his home, and a CCTV camera was found inside.
His parents told him that they would monitor the cameras every day to make sure he doesn’t masturbate.
The boy voiced out that he wasn’t okay with that, but his father said he already agreed not to masturbate. It wasn’t stated clearly if he agreed to stop masturbating in the first place, but this is still a violation of privacy!
According to The Sun, the parents are against pre-marital sexual activities, and apparently, they’ve also stopped the teenager from taking part in sex education classes at school. This sounds absolutely ridiculous.
The original post was then taken down, and nobody knows what happened to the boy.
A person commented and asked him to talk to a teacher his trusts because his parents’ behaviour is “extremely alarming”. The commenter also reminded the boy that he needs “a reasonable amount of privacy” while he’s using the bathroom or changing.
It sounds absurd when basic privacy is being violated by one’s very own parents! Putting religious or personal beliefs aside, the parents may have committed a crime in doing so.
