If your parents put limits on your device, there is a problem with them. See this page for an in-depth look at why your parent's should not be limiting your device: Should_parents_limit_technology. First of all, the page above explains why parents should not limit your device. Show your parents this page, and if they do not agree with you, you need to take action. There are several different types of limits that parents use, and different methods of countering them. Most commonly is taking the device away. Most parents will give the child the device for a set time each day, and take it away from them after the time is up. If this is the case, find out where you parents put your device, and take if from there. Make sure to put it back before your parents come looking for it. They need to give it to you for your daily amount that you are "supposed" to have. If they find it is gone, they will be very suspicious. In some cases, the parents will put the device in a safe. If this is your case, set up a camera on video just before your parents get your device out for you daily amount. Record what they do to open the safe, and copy them! Some parents install extra software to limit usage on devices. If this is your case, there is only one way to change it. Find out your parent's password, and alter the settings. Finding the password will be difficult, but again you can record them at a computer or email, etc. The final way some parents limit usage is limiting charge. This is the most frustrating of all ways, as you will be straining to look at a dim screen any time you use your device. Parents who limit charge will take away your charging cable and keep it hidden. As with the first case scenario, find out where they are keeping your cable, and take it from there to keep your device charged. If you use your device too much, they will grow suspicious and suspect you are charging it somewhere. Keep you usage down during the day, but if you are out of the house or home alone, there is nothing to stop you from using it as much as you want to. Most likely, your parents will keep the cable in a safe. Finding the combination to the safe will be very difficult if they do not use it much. If you cannot find out how to get it back, buying a new cable is your best option. If you don't have the money for it, use your parent's money. After all, they were the ones who forced you to buy another cable. Finally, you may never be able to crack your parent's security. If you can't find out where they keep your device, or cable, of what their password is, use their money to buy yourself another device. Since they are forcing you to buy another, they should fund you. This is not stealing - it's taking back from them what they took from you. If you don't use their money, they are guilty of stealing. You are putting it right. Hope this all helps!

Should parents limit technology?
This question is slightly ambiguous, but I read it as the parent is limiting technology for their children. If so, the answer depends entirely on the child's age and maturity, and whether the technology device in question belongs to the child or not. If the device belongs to the child, either the child bought it or someone else (probably the parents) gave it to them as a gift. In either case, the parents have agreed that the child can own the device. The parents should know the possible uses, the measure of responsibility needed, and the amount the device will be used. If the parents want to put limits on the child's device, they should explain to the child before they buy the device, or at the time the gift was opened. That way, the child will understand that they are buying/receiving less, rather than buying/receiving something great, and then have a portion of it taken away. However, for a child, it is very frustrating to own a device that they cannot use without limits. Putting limits on a child's device will break down the relationship far more than the parent will expect. Thus, for family unity, limiting a child's own device is the worse than any other option. What if the device belongs to the parent? Using the example of a games console like PlayStation, Xbox, or Wii, the parent should limit how much other people use the device. If the console belongs to the parent, the parent limits it. If the device belongs to a friend, the friend limits it. If the device belongs to the child, the child limits it. It all comes down to whoever owns the device. If the parents do not want the child to use the device to whatever extent the child wants to, the parents should now allow the child to own the device. This does not mean that the parent should take away a device that the child already owns. If they do that, the family relationship between parent and child will deteriorate more than if the parent put limits on the child's device. Some exceptions do occur. If the child is using the device when he/she is supposed to be doing other things, like house chores, sleeping, or homework, the parents should take the device away from the child. After child finishes the chores/sleeping/homework, the parents should give the device back to the child. Compare this with a book. Books are a form of entertainment. They sometimes distract people, especially children, from what they should be doing. If the child was reading a book while they were supposed to be doing homework, what should the parent do? They should take away the book until the child has finished homework. What if the child was reading the book late at night when he/she was supposed to be asleep? The parent should take away the book until the next day. The case is exactly the same with any technology device. So in conclusion, whoever owns the device decides who can use it and how much. If the person is a child, and is using the device when they are supposed to be doing something else, the parent should take the device away and return it to the child when the child has finished the "something else". Most importantly, if the parent wants to limit the child's device, they should not allow the child to buy/receive the device in the first place.
Why do parents not let children what they want?
Parents don't let children do and have whatever they want because learning limits is part of what responsible parents need to teach children. They also put limits on their children for other reasons, like the child's safety. If parents don't teach their children that they can't have and do whatever they want, when the child becomes an adult, they will certainly learn it or find themselves in some type of trouble, such as being in jail, homeless, or any number of undesirable situations. Believe it or not, parents who put limits on their children, teach them to be responsible, etc. love their children and care about their safety and their futures.
Are you allowed to put 100 watt instead of 40?
A Watt is a unit power. If you put too much power into a device (almost ANY device) it is likely that if you exceed the design (or the practical) limits of the device you will result in some kind of catrostrophic failure. Whether you are allowed (or permitted) to exceed the design or practical limits of the devivce you are using is up to you. My personal limit to overdriving machines is 110 percent. Anything else endangers my family's need for my pension. JCF
