Rumney reflects that while she appreciates tracking her kids' locations for safety, it has become a burden, leading to an overreliance on technology in her family's life.
Despite initially thinking that the phone was a good compromise for her son's independence, Rumney now questions whether the benefits outweigh the emotional risks of constant monitoring.
