My daughter just turned eleven and got her first tablet last month, so I’d like to check her app and browsing history occasionally, but I don’t want her feeling spied on. Is there a fair way to balance that?
Totally doable if you make it a house rule instead of a secret: tell her you’ll do occasional spot checks, use built-in controls like Family Link or Screen Time, and review the log together so it’s about safety, not surveillance. At 11, asking her to show you apps/browser history when needed usually buys more trust than reading everything silently.
