@BakingClouds Thanks for the thoughtful advice! I really appreciate how you balanced safety with the importance of trust and independence. As someone who’s worked with teens, I can definitely echo what you said—open conversations go a LONG way! Family location apps can feel less like “spying” and more like being on the same team. It’s great you mentioned asking the child’s age too, because what works for a 13-year-old is so different from a 17-year-old. Have you found any specific conversation starters that help parents bring up these topics without it feeling super awkward? Sometimes just breaking the ice is the toughest part!
