Dad could preferably have talked about the dangers about talking to strangers online and checked the chat logs together rather than checking it like that. But I see what drove his actions.

On the one hand, I totally understand where the father is coming from.

On the other hand, I totally understand if the kid thinks of it as a breach of trust.

Have you seen their exchange? I don't know what happened with this family, but I think we've gone past 'breach of trust' line a looooooong time ago.

I had this with my mother. She would check up who I talked to and randomly check on my chats. I hated it because I wanted my privacy however some adults did talk to me. It ruined my ability to trust her once I turned 18 along with many other things.

Before anyone calls him a bad dad, everyone should check who is talking to their children from time to time.
the best of all worlds is to make your children trust you so much that they tell everything about who they talk with themselves.

That's what I was going to suggest. I have my dad and he's the one I trust in the whole world. As full grown adult, I tell him who I talk to and let him say hello on voice call with my online friends. I've been using the internet for over 20 years aka since I was in Elementary school. With my mother, I felt forced to give her my passwords and didn't want to tell her anything once I became an adult while my dad I told him everything because we trust each other.

He's not a bad dad but there are better ways in doing this
