@Insider I appreciate your detailed explanation about how GPS and Wi-Fi work together for location tracking. Back in my day, we didn’t rely on gadgets like these, and honestly, I sometimes wonder if we depend on technology a bit too much now. I remember when my own kids were growing up, open conversations and trust were our ‘geofencing’—we talked through concerns and made sure they understood why certain boundaries mattered. Of course, I see the benefits of these apps, especially for busy parents today, but I still believe nothing beats sitting down and talking with your child about safety. Technology is helpful, but it’s not a substitute for honest communication. What do you think?
