I’ve not been a parent, but I think it actually sounds pretty nice to be able to check where your kid is, before a certain age.
For a young kid, who cant advocate for themselves or otherwise be trusted to know when to seek help from an adult, theres really not much expectation of privacy? You should probably know where your 6 y/o is at all times, I don’t find that particularly creepy.
The peace of mind having access to a findmy network for my keys and other devices saves me an embarrassing amount of anxiety. These are inanimate objects that are at most an inconvenience to lose, and they cant wander off on their own. Given how I’m willing to essentially track myself for keys, I can see how parents justify tracking their kids to and from school.
The sheer terror that they must sometimes feel if the bus is late or their kid decides to follow a friend home must be pretty unbearable. When they’re old enough for a phone or to otherwise access a trusted adult when needed, then I can see an argument to be made for their autonomy.

They are people doing their job, but they do have say over the agenda of their employees. IMO an endless pursuit of wealth is kind of evil.
