Technology has made parenting so much more complex. You can be more involved than ever, or you can leave your kid to rot their brain on TikTok unsupervised for the majority of their waking days. The choice is for parents to make, but there are certainly cases of observing your kid too closely. I was in high school when the Life360 app became popular, and so many parents of my friends used it. The app diligently tracks a person's location and collects tons of data about how they're traveling from place to place. One of my friend's mom would track how fast she was driving and reprimand her if she went even 10 miles over the speed limit. Who has time for that? Parents were watching every move their 17-year-olds made, and it made high school feel like a panopticon even more than it already was. If you've ever been personally victimized by an overbearing parental observer, these parenting texts might strike a chord.

If you want to see him, the offer is still on the table. But you need to respect my being his father and primary parent Our relationship is done. That will never ever recover and neither of us want it to. But you don't have to lose entirely like you have chosen to. I have never spoken ill of you to Ever. Yo

Your price of admission is too high for me. On a side note, if you have never spoken ill of me why then did in December in a very accusatory tone want to know why I had cut his father out of my will. Don't imagine that this is something that a nine year old would come up on his own. You may not have said anyth
