"surveillance-minded parents"... Are they trying to put a negative spin on it?

Knowing where your underage kid is is a must these days. Lots of crazy people out there.

I think you're one of those crazy people. Honestly, no one with that level of control obsession should be allowed to have children.

You're thinking wrong.

You guys are confusing safety with surveillance because of the obvious clickbaity title of the article.

Having the option to know where your children are is not the same as controlling them. Parent intent matters and any tool can be abused, which doesn't mean the tool is wrong.
