Being a parent doesn't mean you own your child. Particularly by the time that they're teenagers. I can justify a great deal of authority over my four year old because she still doesn't quite have the capacity to avoid running into traffic. Similar thing, I had a nest camera in my daughter's room when she was under 3. Now I've removed it, because she is old enough to have time to herself. I know one parent who demands to have a camera in their kids room and one of those kids is 14. That's beyond awful.
