I believe the history page shows all the posts from the IP you're viewing the page from.
There is a bit of trickery that if you use the same VPN as someone else, you can see all the posts anyone has made from that VPN IP address.
The person who created the post history saw the privacy issue of that and allowed you to block the page for your IP. So your family or anyone else who shares your IP cannot see.
You can click the link at the top to "block this page" or something which will blacklist your current IP address. The page will no longer list the posts when that IP address accesses the page. If your IP changes you have to block it again.

I don't use a VPN and my parents aren't going to come here so that shouldn't be a problem for me, right?

My IP address changes from time to time though, does that mean that I will lose the post history once it changes? And technically the person that gets my IP address next could see my posts?

Wouldn't it better to use the cookies so it's linked to each computer?

I really don't know why would someone want to have a history with all the posts that you have made here. I don't see the utility of it. With the watchlist is enough to follow the threads where you have posted.
