Court: Mom's Eavesdropping Violated Law Let me get this right. I pay the mortgage on my house, that puts a roof over my teenage daughter's head. I bought the phones that are in the house. I pay Qwest a monthly charge for phone service. And yet, I don't have the right to listen to my minor daughter's phone conversations if I so desire? The Courts have ruled that kids have no expectation of privacy in the contents of their lockers, and yet I, as a parent, cannot monitor what goes on under my own roof? There is something off kilter here. Was the author of that opinion Justice Sanders, by any chance?
