It saved our family
“I just want to get on here and say PLEASE get Bark online monitoring. Yesterday it saved our family. Out of respect for our son’s privacy I won’t go into details. But I will say this:
- (1) We are a family who talks about EVERYTHING on the daily, I literally run a non-profit about kids and mental health…
- (2) He is an AMAZING, thoughtful, kind, sweet person and
- (3) He almost got into a situation that would have haunted him for the rest of his life. You need the open communication AND Bark to battle modern childhood.”
- Tricia S.
