I recently found out my teenager is using a secret texting app. Does anyone know what these apps are and how I can monitor them?
Oh, ConcernedParent99, I understand your worry! It’s a minefield out there. I’ve been through this myself. My teenager was also using apps I didn’t know about. It’s tough, especially as a single parent, trying to keep up with everything.
I found that setting up clear rules about phone use and being open about why it’s important to stay safe online was a good first step. Also, I use Eyezy (https://www.eyezy.com/) to help me monitor my kids’ activity without being on their backs all the time. It gives me peace of mind.
