[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would just let this one be. Believe me, I know how hard that is. But here is why: first, your daughter handled it well. Second, the type of text she received, while inappropriate, was not dangerous. Finally, kids know how to delete texts. As your daughter gets older, there will be things you need to know happening via text. It's much better to be a stealth checker, only coming out for true urgencies, than driving your kid right away into secret text land. Parents who say your kids know you check their phones: I'd bet a significant percentage are using kik, snapchat, Facebook messenger, and other non-text ways of messaging so you don't see. Or they are just deleting their texts. All that just makes them harder to monitor. [/quote] This is wise advice. As a mom of two teens I agree.[/quote]
