    I will ask him what it called.

    Maybe consider putting on your child's cellphone so you can see where they are. Maybe that reassuring to you that they were they should be. Not tool old for it to be intrusion of privacy really. Not like they 17 or older.

    I will e-mail him and ask what app is called - I come back and edit this when he tells me.
    Just be mindful such a tool can easily become consuming. If you are anxious you may just sit and watch the app to see your childs every movement, which can feed the anxiety instead of distracting yourself and keeping busy to stay calm. Just be mindful of the cons of such a seemingly handy tool!

    LOL that was pretty much my response to the post before reading yours It reinforces the anxiety which isn't healthy. That is why for the most part it is turned off. I don't want to become reliant on it for the exact reasons you stated Lee-Bee and so far I've managed to refrain from doing so for the most part.
