[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kids are 17, 17, 14 and I have "find my phone" for each of them but I rarely use it.

My 17 year old son is super social and went through a "I'm going to attend every teen party in the DMV" phase when he was newly 16. [b] I used it a bunch then because I never knew if he was in Potomac or DC or Arlington or Chevy Chase or... ?[/b]

Thankfully he's phased out of that. It's been a good 6 months since I ever checked to see where he is and months since he's even been to a party.  I think he got it out of his system, plus junior year has just been a beast at school.  Lots of weekends spent catching up on sleep and doing homework vs. socializing non-stop. [/quote]

You didn’t know what city your own DC was in without using a tracker?? Very odd.[/quote]

Huh.  No.  You know your teen's every move when they leave your house on Saturday night?  
That is beyond weird.
I know when my kids leave and they know when they're supposed to be home (midnight) but I don't require them to tell me where they are the entire time.

That’s completely foreign to me. We are told where they are going, who will be there, and if parents will be at the home supervising. [/quote]

It's completely normal to me.  I don't know anyone who tracks their teen's location (where are you going? who is going to be there?).  I have two teens (16 and 17) and they each have about 6 good friends whose parents are my friends and no one knows exactly where their kids are on any Saturday night. These are all upper NW DC families.  [/quote]
