I have all my kids on find my friends including my 18 yo. I don’t check it to see where they are, I trust them and have never had a reason to randomly check it. I only have it in case of an emergency. In case one of my kids was ever unreachable or god forbid went missing, at least I would have their last known location. My kids are all fine with it and feel safer knowing I have their location. It’s how I found out my oldest was in a car accident (she told me she would be home around 1am, when 1am came and went and no sign of her, I checked the app and saw that her location was stopped on the road not moving anymore). So I do it for safety/emergency purposes. How about you?
Yes I do through the find my friends on our iPhones.
I trust my kids, I just dont trust all of the other assholes in the world.
We don't stop at any age. I know where my adult kids and minor kids are at all times and they all know where we are also

We use good old fashioned trust with consequences for non compliance.

I do because I am annoying, but not because I don't trust them.
I use the "find my iPhone" feature and it interrupts what they are watching or doing. LOL
Honey, I'm the original one-eyed chicklet in the kingdom of the blind, 'cause at least I admit the world makes me nuts.

Nope, they are 25 & 20. They track each other though.

There was one time I actually doubted that my 13 year old was where she said she was so I told her to take a picture and send it within 60 seconds.

It’s not about the trust for me. I’ve never suspected they weren’t where they told me they were going. It’s for safety in case of an emergency or god forbid they go missing.

I totally get that, and it is a good idea.
