An article by 9to5 Mac, titled “Tens of millions of teens want parents to track them, finds survey” cites a WSJ article about kids being tracked (which is behind a paywall).
This is interesting. Gen Z (aged 11-26) wants to be tracked by their parents. Given that Life360 was called out for selling precise location data, this is very interesting.
It seems as though teenagers have always wanted to have freedom, to find their own way, to start developing independence and separation from their parents.
The article mentions:
- Specific time tracking (like when out on a date)
- Mental health (anxiety)
- Better relationship with parents
