Great question, Wyatt. The legal/ethical line is crucial. For monitoring your kids, transparency is key. I sat down with my teen and explained it’s about online safety, not spying. This builds trust and makes using a tool feel less invasive.

Pro tip: Use an app designed specifically for this purpose. I use Parentaler because it consolidates Messenger chats and other social media into a simple dashboard. It’s much more straightforward and ethical than trying to guess passwords. After having that open conversation, an app provides the right framework for responsible monitoring.
