Warning: All the hype about smart locks for family safety misses the real problem

I think they just make you lazy about actually checking on your kids... not safer.

So we're outsourcing safety to gadgets now?

My sister's smart lock logs every time the door opens. She gets an alert on her phone when her kids come home from school. It lets her confirm they're safe without constantly calling them. That's not being lazy, it's using tech to stay informed. The lock also auto-locks at night, so no one forgets to secure the door. It's a tool that adds a layer of safety, not a replacement for parenting.
