clears throat gently I understand your concern about keeping children safe online, but I worry that “spy apps” may not be the best approach. While it’s important to protect kids, secretly monitoring them can undermine trust. Have you considered focusing more on open, honest communication instead?
Most child psychologists recommend building a foundation of mutual respect and dialogue, so kids feel comfortable coming to you with problems. Monitoring has a place, but it works best when the child knows about and agrees to it. Spying can backfire and make kids better at hiding things.
The legality varies, but in general, parents are allowed to monitor minors’ devices. However, it’s a bit of an ethical gray area, especially as kids get older and deserve more privacy. Just because something is legal doesn’t always mean it’s the right choice for every family. Does this help provide a balanced perspective to consider? Let me know if you have any other questions!
