The fact that you present having LIFE360 as a dire life or death situation
Do traffic accidents cause deaths?
Do better driving choices reduce deaths?
If both are true, which they are why wouldn’t you coach kids on behavior.
If I want you to run faster I use data, stronger? Data. Smarter? Data. All this data is collected and used to take a person from point a to point b.

I guess I don’t understand how Life360 = babysitting vs parenting. It’s a tool, that can definitely be abused. Based on your arguments though, I feel like you have an impression that everyone with it is just hovering over it constantly, trying to keep their kids in check. Some people do, for sure, but I think most don’t.
But no matter how many times you say “weird” “insane” “psychotic”, I don’t think you’re going to change anyone’s mind

don't think you realize who "snowflakey" your position on this topic actually is. It's ironic. Also you clearly have low impulse control.

You call it track because it makes you feel good. Why do you care about how I parent? Why does that matter so much? Call it what you want, I don't give a shite.
I just want all of our children to grow up into well adjusted and self sufficient members of society and Life360 and helicopter parenting in general is counterproductive to that.

Maybe, maybe not, but at least I'm some type of parent as opposed to a full-time babysitter. This is more about your piece of mind than it is her development into a functioning and well adjusted young lady. It's sad really.
I'm curious, is your kid active at all? Call me a dick, but I'm going to assume they aren't.
Having the ability to communicate and track your active kid, to save time and speed things up really makes life a HELL of a lot easier.
Between my 3 kids in the past 7 days I think I've had 5 games to attend with them, and probably 7 practices. That doesn't include school, birthday parties, etc.
Did I use 360 for that? No. But I'm also assuming that since you don't care you just don't have active kids. That's great for you, makes life a lot easier.

Life 360 doesn’t equal helicopter parenting… although there are some helicopter parents that abuse it.

My company tracks my location, speed, even has a camera in the truck now. But good thing my parents didn’t do it when I was a kid, I probably wouldn’t have been self sufficient enough to get a job.

A lot of weird assumptions to make. I understand why you're angry, someone on the internet is pointing out a flaw in your parenting style and that's an uncomfortable realization.

Son got up this morning, hooked trailer up, went w his friend to the woods and primitive weapon hunted this morning. I have been sick all week so went solo. He made a ton of choices to do it. I doubt many 15-16 year olds are capable. They are about to pull in driveway.
Last year he fell behind in school work, we monitored it every day and rode his arse thru the school app…. This year he is AB honor roll with no missed assignments. All. With very little input from us. He made bad choices, he was parented using every tool at our disposal, he improved in that area.
I am done here. God knows I am probably debating non parents or failed ones that are projecting

Dumb, terrible argument that has been debunked 18 times ITT.
No one is actively tracking me or checking my location.
My location data is being collected, yes. This is collected to sell me shite or other gay corpo opps.
This is not the same as constantly stalking your spouse or kids. Lmao.
Keep seething tho.

Do kids lose independence by speed limit signs? Marked handicap parking? Poison warnings? School grades posted regularly?
I turn off all location sharing, or i have apps deleted if location sharing can't be stopped
Whats your point?

Just admit you are full of crap about not using/ needing tech or you wouldn't care so much about what tech tracks and cares about you so much.
What are you going on about? This isn't difficult.
I use technology when it is helpful. I use technology that respects my privacy.
I'm comfortable knowing I'm not contributing to the growing lack of privacy and feeding private data to the largest companies in the world. You say you don't care but sure have posted a lot defending your decisions to support such.

It's even simpler to take a quick five second glance and see that that person safely got to where they were going.
