    If you need to spy on your kids to keep tabs on them, you’re a shitty parent. You should be able to discuss enabling Find My (assuming they have an iPhone) on their phone and why that’s required (by you) openly.

    Too many inept people have children. That’s a large part of why society is in such decline.

      Hey asshole, special needs kids are big and strong and smart enough to get themselves out in the world and need ways to get to them to keep them safe. There are plenty of reasonable reasons for tracking tech for your kid that aren’t helicopter parenting.

        Hey asshole

        What an unnecessary and disproportionately rude response to what they’re saying.

        special needs kids

        Special needs is not something every person out there considers daily along with its ramifications for you to be attacking whoever forgets when it’s not part of their lives when it only affects a small fraction of school-aged children. Even I forget, despite growing up with a non-verbal autistic kid, and even then he wasn’t running around getting in trouble for me to even consider this scenario.
