Dear Jellybean,
I'm not sure if this is really a problem. I walked into my parents' room, and my dad seemed really surprised and started clicking really fast on the computer, as if exiting something he didn’t want anyone to see. He acted really flustered afterwards. I want to ask him about it but I’m worried. Don’t get me wrong, I love my dad, he's the greatest. Plus it might be nothing at all. I don’t know what to do!!! Help!

Dear Confused,
You're right - it might be nothing at all. Yes, it's possible that your dad was looking at something icky when you walked in, but he could just as easily have been researching your mom's birthday present, or photoshopping his balding head with hair or something else that he didn't want you to see him doing.
Point is, it's his room, his computer... and his business. Your dad is entitled to his privacy, just as you are. So, whatever he was doing, try to put it out of your mind and not stress about it.
Let this be a lesson to you for the future, too: Always knock on your parents' door before barging into their room, and you'll save you and them grief.
