Co-parenting with equal access
RootLock gives a co-parent the same access you have. You both get the alerts, both see the kids on the map and their drives, and both can manage blocking, schedules and Lock Devices. Adding a co-parent is included in the one family subscription, and each adult decides what of their own they share.
