Tracking apps are not primarily designed to keep children safe or help with parenting. They are designed to make money by gathering loads of information to be sold to other companies. Should a child's information become de-anonymized and fall into the wrong hands, this could put one's child at risk.
Why parents should not use tracking apps?
Constant monitoring has shown to damage parent and teen relationships while simultaneously causing harm to the child's development. Teens and young adults who feel like they are always being watched can develop anxiety issues and suffer from lack of confidence.
Why you shouldn't track your child's phone?
No amount of spying on our kids is going to make them safer. In fact, it can lead to a host of unwanted consequences, like building mutual distrust between you and your children. It can backfire and encourage them to try even harder to hide risky behavior because they know you're looking for it.Dec 3, 2021
