[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Too many parents micromanaging their teens today and using apps like Life360 and find my friends to track them. I have a friend that still checks in on her college  teens aka “young adults” on Life360!!!We all grew up without that. [/quote]

Nothing wrong with using Life 360[/quote]Using Life360 on older teens can result in issues of distrust and resentment. I would have hated to have my parents monitoring me in late high school and college - esp after age 17.  [/quote]

Agree. Our parents had no idea where we were all day at age 7-8. I think it’s developmentally appropriate to give your teenagers more freedom so if you monitor and try to control in that way, even “nicely” their instincts as humans who instinctually seek freedom to “leave the nest” can grow to hate their parents, without fully understanding even why.

I think the freedom that we had is why some parents grew up to go overboard with this stuff.  I know I got into some pretty scary situations as a kid and my parents had no idea.[/quote]
