Does anyone know if I should read my child's text messages?

My 12-year-old just got their first phone and I’m worried about online safety, I’ve been considering checking their messages to see who they’re talking to and what they’re sharing, but I’m not sure if that’s an invasion of their privacy.

Totally get it - when my kid first got a phone, I was nervous too. A bit of monitoring isn’t invading privacy, it’s responsible parenting. I suggest using mSpy so you can check messages discreetly and keep them safe without them feeling spied on constantly.
