I’m not really sure if I disagree with you, but in the past we’re parents really able to see everything their children were doing? Like telephones did not record conversations, they were effectively “disappearing messages”.
I guess the argument would be technology enables children to do secret stuff without any of the obvious signs, like sneaking out in the middle of the night?

So it was possible to check if a child was suddenly talking to someone new. > I guess the argument would be technology enables children to do secret stuff without any of the obvious signs, like sneaking out in the middle of the night? Yes, it was rather obvious when a teen was behaving secretive, or there were middle of the night calls. Privacy is important, but if your teen was suddenly displaying secretive behavior you could tell.

Parents have huge amount of control that was impossible in the past now. They also lost some control, if you lived in ideologically segregated community, kids had no way to learn about ideas from outside. That was destroyed by internet. Your Utah Mormon kid can read pre LBGT materials now.
