You can monitor kids’ text messages (and more) with KidGuard (**Includes a PROMO**)

By Melissa Auvil

I was JUST having this conversation with some mommy-friends the other day.  Back when we were kids, our parents monitored our phone use by quietly picking up the corded phone and listening in on our conversations without us knowing.  Today, what can parents do?  The thought frightens me…. my child having access to a device that she likely knows more about than I do, not including all of the social media on it.

The GPS tracker can tell you where your child is in real time, plus where they’ve been!  You can not only check on the text messages currently on their phone, you can look at the ones they delete.  Also, if you don’t have a download protection password, you can count on KidGuard to tell you what apps your child is downloading onto their device.  And when the teenage daughter tells you that “Billy” is just a friend, yet you can SEE she’s talked to him 8 times before dinner for a total of 3 hours… you know he’s not just a friend.  Time to invite “friend Billy” to dinner so you can meet him face-to-face!  You’d never have that info if not for KidGuard.
