Parental monitoring software now uses AI to flag 'concerning' messages. The pros are real. The costs to trust and to LGBTQ+ kids especially are also real.
Bark, Aura, Qustodio, and similar apps use AI to scan your messages and flag 'concerning' content for parents — bullying, drugs, self-harm, sexual content. They have caught real problems and saved real lives. They have also outed LGBTQ+ teens and broken trust in families that never recovered.
If monitoring is on (or being discussed), have the conversation. 'I'd rather you know what's installed and we agree on the rules than find out later.' It's a hard conversation, and most parents respect that you opened it.
