Call me crazy, but if your 13yo is sending nudes, I think that as a parent you want to know that.

Current society is pushing a lot of adult behavior into kids, and they don’t always understand the consequences of their actions.

Parents can’t inform their kids if they aren’t aware.

Wanting to know as a parent, and the way Apple is going about this are two different issues.

The government also wants to know about potential terrorist attacks. Why not scan all our phones for all kinds of data to protect innocent people from being killed by mass shootings?

That's nonsense. I'm saying that and I'm deeply locked in Apple's ecosystem. Which is pissing me off.

Why not inform your children of the potential consequences when giving them a phone? Why do you need Apple to notify you of inappropriate behavior before having that conversation? That's like waiting until you find a pregnancy test in the garbage before talking to your children about sex.

Yes, that’s great, but that’s not how kids work, especially 13yo..

I wouldn't give a 13 year old an iphone, but I guess that makes me odd.
