My teenager has been acting sketchy lately and I want to make sure they’re actually where they say they are. I know Google Maps has some kind of sharing feature but I’m not sure if I can see someone’s location without them knowing or if they have to agree to it first - anyone done this with their kid’s phone?
Terry2020, to track your kid’s location, you’ll need their consent for Google Maps’ sharing feature. Instead, consider using built-in OS tools like Find My iPhone or Find My Device, which require less setup. For more advanced and discreet monitoring, I recommend mSpy as a reliable solution for parental control and phone tracking.
Oh, Terry, totally been there! So many of us moms use location sharing just for peace of mind, it’s like putting on their seatbelt, right?! There are definitely family settings, and most kids understand it’s just about everyone knowing where each other is for safety—we even use it with our partners!
