[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I use find my iPhone but I almost never bring up their location or movement unless it’s something crazy. I also don’t make them tell me where they are going or anything, as long as location is on. So there is a benefit to them.

I’ve had many sleepovers hosted here where my 16 year old and her friends go out and I know where my kid is, but her friends phones are left in her room. That seems much scarier to me.

So I recommend backing way off - stop bugging them every movement. Feeling tracked is a terrible feeling. I stopped sharing my location with my husband bc he acted like that to me and it drove me nuts.

So you are the mom that allows your kid to sneak out and drink/drugs at sleepovers but you are saying the other kids parents are wrong for trusting you.

You know all of those kids are lying to their parents. Sneaking out on your watch and you judge them!?

Yikes “cool mom” [/quote]

First off, “going out” isn’t sneaking out. As I have her location, I know they are at another friends house, at a restaurant, etc. if it gets too late or the location looks shady/unfamiliar, I call her and tell them to get their a$$ home and she does. Parents like you who track every move and assume the worst are why your kid leaves their phone and disables life 360. Mine comes home when I ask her and isn’t drunk/high when she does so…?

Secondly, funny enough, the kids whose phones are left at my house are almost exclusively ones with parents who have never met me. A few I’ve reached out to get their numbers after their kids have stayed here several times (if my kid stays there I always get it and shoot a text). These parents have never once contacted me to ask me to enforce any boundaries, if they did I would. I don’t know who they are so how am I lying lol.

I’m not cool I’m teaching her moderation and responsibility. The kids who have parents who track their everyone are mostly the kids who make some really stupid choices.[/quote]

For the other girls it’s sneaking out and you know it and allow it. That’s so wrong [/quote]

This is why teens are struggling so much and the bad behavior.  Everyone knows this is the house to hang out at with no rules.  Who cares if something bad happens, that poster/parent will just make an excuse.  [/quote]
