For mine kid(if I would have them) I would tell them to have those tracks, but only with a deal to not use it against kid. Like kid skipped a school and I will can't use that track info as a proof to punish kid. So, only use it as a real safety of kid, not as spying it
I used to voluntarily share my location with my dad for "safety". He ended up texting me his McDonald's orders anytime I was within proximity of a McDonald's.
Nope.
That's spying, not safety
Did something similar, had something similar happen, turns out he put a location on Life360 that texted him everytime I pulled into McDonalds, and he would send the same text message each time. Ended up being pretty funny.
