As a side note to be honest, not typing out text in full and opting to use "txt" instead of the regular "text" is a sign of a person who has a fairly juvenile level of cognition and likely not of a person whose opinions may mean all that much in context or functionality.

The whole app is intrusive as shit and really serves no purpose outside of the needs of abusively overly protective "parents" meeting their need for false perceptions of security.

Hell, from the perspective of a 37 year old had this existed in the 80's and 90's when i needed to go out i would have just left my phone at home and said "fuck it all".(and no the world has not changed... awareness and media bullshit over factors has and the rest of it is still largely the same as way back when.

Now if a child is not able to figure out a workaround to said app and other things then to be honest they may very well be undesirably technologically illiterate or down right mentally handicapped and therein in in need of much, much greater supervision on multiple fronts.

Honestly, how hard is it to bypass or disable an app, or to root ones phone? we all have this magical tool called google to take action to do all sorts of thing for sake of our own interests.
