I would think my son would be able to handle himself so I wouldn’t have to worry as much about him.
My aunt has had it for her son since he started driving. He's a senior in HS. It is mainly for when he's on the road and if/when he's late. She has that, "He's certainly dead on the side of the road or in a ditch." anxiety going to an extent.

I don't even like to think about it. In her room is just weird!
That said, I/we have no other reason whatsoever to think anything is wrong.

This doesn't need an explanation. Have you been hiding under a rock. Obviously the people posting in this thread have never experienced a situation where it was very useful. I have

I lived with a divorced dad in HS but he rarely knew where I was as a Jr/Sr.

Think about how far you can take that slippery slope as justification to invade people’s personal lives.
I've already conceded to you that if you're using it to watch your kids/spouse every move then yeah that's a problem.

Well today’s world is much safer than the one I grew up in during the 80s and 90s

I don't even like my wife to know where I am all the time, and I really don't want to know where she is unless she's on a trip or something like that.
For youngsters, that's a different story. Too much evil in the world.
You also have to consider who else has access to that information, even if it's artificial intelligence. You think they are just sitting on that data?

Train people to being used to living under surveillance, don’t be surprised when they advocate for it as they get older. “I had to deal with it as a kid, what’s the big deal?”
The problem isn’t with the parents that will use it with a measured level of decency, the problem is the absolute authority to snoop it gives people who lack the ability to control their snooping.

Exactly. Most people are unaware of this.

It's definitely helicopter parenting imo.
Posted on 10/15/20 at 1:03 pm to MobileJosh
My family has it. I like it. My wife isn't a crazy over controlling stalker and I dont lie to her about where I am so it's really no big deal as far as that goes
It comes in handy. We've used it on road trips when the kids where riding with my mom to figure out where they were. If I need to go pick up the kids from a friends or somewhere I've never been I know right where they are. I check to see where my wife is so I know about how long before she'll be home. If our daughter hasnt told us she left work and isnt answering, we can see if shes still there and know she's just working later.
Not for everybody I'm sure, but it's useful to us and hasnt caused any issues.

I have a sophomore and a 8th grader so it's a great tool for me. I know the things I did in HS and I would've hated for my parents to have the app but that's the main reason I have it now lol. HS kids do stupid stuff so if i get an alert stating hes doing 68mph in a 55 zone you can bet hes getting his arse chewed. If he's supposed to be at so an sos party yet hes 3 miles away at another persons house he will be held accountable for it.

My kids asked me to get it. I said find friends is good enough.

Um, why does your wife make your college aged son have it?
