I guess I can see thinking that way at some point in my life. But I've had life360 on phones for my 14&16 yo boys for a couple years, and we all see where we all are, and nobody seems to have any issues with it. I can't think of any places they'd go that I've have an issue with, so not really anything to do with trust. Just nice to know where they are if I haven't heard from them in a while. It seems less intrusive checking in with them constantly. It's nice to be able to quickly glance that they made it where they were going ok, or where they are on the golf course, or on the lake if they take the bass boat by themselves. They also like to know where I am if they're going to need me for something. I just see it as being able to be more hands off and relaxed as a parent when we all know where we are. I can see turning it off as they get older, but for younger kids it just seems nice for everyone.
