So, my parents recently decided to move my PC into the living room, and while I get that they want to keep an eye on me, it’s really affecting my privacy. I’m 15, and I find it hard to concentrate on gaming, studying, or just relaxing without some peace and quiet. I’d really like to know how I can convince them to let me have my PC back in my room. Any suggestions?

If you bought the PC yourself, bring that up! Remind them that you used your own money for it. If they got it for you, though, they have a bit more say in where it goes. Maybe you could argue about needing a quiet space to study and focus better.
Ultimately, it’s about trust. If they feel they can’t trust you, they won’t budge. Maybe try to accept this for now. Prove you’re responsible and then bring up the conversation about getting your privacy back later.
It seems like your parents probably had a good reason for moving it. Maybe they noticed something that made them uneasy? It could be worth having a conversation with them to find out why they made that decision.
Yeah, understanding their reasoning could help. If it’s about trust, maybe you can show them you’re responsible enough to have it back.
Exactly! Plus, they probably worry more about what’s happening online these days, which is fair.
