yeah this. ofc i think parents should care about their child's activities to some degree but like, there is a big difference between just caring and invading their privacy to an unnecessary degree, and monitoring their online activity that intensely is way over the line imo. i'm not a parent but my own parents were pretty restrictive and it led to a cycle of me wanting to hide more stuff from them as i didn't feel comfortable sharing it with them, making them more suspicious and distrustful, etc, and it just generally sucked. having space and time to explore and make mistakes on your own is a large part of how you grow i think. i'm glad there are a bunch of parents out there who are more trusting lol
literally same, absolutely. i think parents have the potential to be a super great resource for making that exploration safe, but this definitely doesn't feel like it lmao
100% agree, have the same immediate emotional response to these kinds of tools, have yet to hear a story about someone whose parents used something like this and the relationship didn't completely fall apart, if there was one to begin with :/
Hearing about your friend Mads and her child is such a nice, heartwarming story compared to what most of us went through 
right??? she's literally so cool, 10/10 role model who made me realize that there wasn't inherently something fucked up about all parent-child relationships and that they definitely can be genuinely good and mutually fulfilling relationships
