    Problems with my son

    Hi to all of you guys!
    So about my problem :

    Recently Ive spotted that my son is acting weird, he refuses to talk with me, sometimes coming back home too late and I think that he is on drugs or was enforced by some bad company, sometimes I say that it is better to stay at home and play games instead of going out with some freaky `friends`.

    Wife offered me to start a spy for him, at least for his devices.
    We searched some and found some top lists of spy apps, but their prices are always too high, we can`t afford this big price during the lockdown, even the purpose is hilarious.

    After all my wife`s friend advised us this website https://theteensafe.com where prices are not that high, but I am still in doubt whether they are real or this is just a fraud..
    Did you try it or heard about some experience? Or somebody can advise me any other proper app to resolute this problem or any other way to control the kid, I don`t know what to do ..

    2 months ago Ive even bought a new pc for him, it was just a hope that he will switch up for gaming instead of these suspicious activities..

    Re: Problems with my son

    I have three sons and one daughter and have used various monitoring devices through the years on their PC, Tablets and phones. The best I have found is Kaspersky Safe Kids, it's only $14.99 a year for multiple devices and you can get features and review here:

    Kaspersky Safe Kids is a full-featured, affordable parental monitoring system for desktop and mobile platforms that doesn't impose limits on the number of devices you can monitor.


    I have also used Quostudio. and it is good, but a bit pricey but has some nice features:



    I wish you and your wife all the best for your son. What an age we live in when you have to monitor all these things. When I was a kid, all my mom had to worry about is calling for me when the streetlights came on and how much Atari I was playing! Best of luck and I hope the suggestions help. Happy Holidays!

          Big thanks for this advice!
          I will look into this app, hope that in the end something will help us to take a bit control under our kid. I also know that we should give him freedom, but this is a question of life safety

            So we’re to believe you're 21 and have a son that was born when you were 7?

            Don’t forget you entered your birthdate when signing up and 1999 lines up with 21 years old (probably 22 now).

              I saw the title of this thread and the first thing I thought of was the Evan_OS thing a few years back. I don't remember if it was its own thread or not and thought maybe a spambot had bumped it if it was in its own thread

              Then I see it's a different user who just started the thread today

              Then detective Kehlis comes through with the revelation that the OP who supposedly has a 14 y/o son is himself only 21 y/o

                  Have you tried talking to him? Like sitting him down and stuff. I know you said he doesn't talk to you but Im not sure how far that goes. Also how late is too late? At age 14 I feel like what is he actually doing? I feel like spying on his electronics is just going to end up worse than it is now when he eventually finds out.

                      That would be very believable if you didn't take the time to type this sentence as your bio which isn't even a requirement to join lol.

                      "My name is Johny Blacks, my age - 21 years old."

                      You have at least two other accounts so I would have even accepted you saying you made this post from the wrong account.

                      We've been Evan'ed before. Don't Evan us. If you just don't trust your girlfriend and want to spy on her, let us know. I'm sure some here can help with that.

                        if he can't be trusted with ''devices'' i.e. phones, pc's, what-have-you, he shouldn't have access. IMO spying isn't the answer for a healthy relationship. if he's in as much danger as sounds, then you'll have to sacrifice all your free time to spend with him. your wife must do the same. it for sure isn't easy to raise a kid right but it's the most important thing one can do in life. hopefully if the first 14 years weren't squandered, it isn't too late. goodluck and godspeed

                          If someone is dating a girl and believe she has to be spied upon, then get the hell out of the relationship. What's the point of all of that noise just to have a tainted relationship. Move on.

                            When I was 7 years old I thought girls were yucky...this dude out here at 7 years old
                            I can't shave with my eyes closed, meaning each day I have to look at myself in the mirror and respect who I see.

                            I miss the old days of Operation Sports :(

                              When I read the OP, it seemed a little off. I'm 41 and have 3 kids. Just got my oldest his first cell phone at 12 years of age. It took me 1-2 hours of research to find the best ways for me and my wife to monitor my kid's usage and limits. Looks like Kehlis probably has figured it out.

                              I guess I missed on the "Evaning". I do remember a user by Evan_OS though.
