[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My 13 year old has been deleting almost all of his texts.  He says this is because he likes his phone to be "neat and tidy", and because he is a "minimalist".

I am concerned he is hiding something, although he's definitely also deleting texts that are harmless.  For example, I checked his sibling's phone and there are lots of mundane texts between them.  Conversations with me are also missing.

Is there a way to prevent him from deleting texts, or for me to be able to see his texts?  He has an iPhone.

Is this something that other people's kids do?  [b]He's a weird kid,[/b] so it might just be that.  [/quote]

You are too controlling. Do you ever think that you are the weird one?[/quote]

Oh, I totally acknowledge that his weirdness comes from me.  I am weird too.

I had reason to check his phone.  I was concerned before I checked it.  [/quote]
Does he also delete his "recently deleted" texts?   If yes - there is something more happening.[/quote]
