Viewing my child’s text messages

Hi there,

just purchased a phone for my daughter for her birthday as I was told by the associate at AT&T that I could track her text messages, now I’m being told that I can’t. :(

can someone help?

Receiving my son’s text message on my phone. I wanted to know if there is a way to receive my son’s text messages on my phone without us having the same Apple ID. I don’t want to do any of the 3rd party apps. I already have Smart Family through Verizon where I monitor who he text and calls. I don’t just want to monitor who he text but I want to be able to read what he is texting. If this is an option can you please direct me on how to set this up?

Can my Messages be monitored by my spouse if the phone is in their name? can my text messages be monitored by my spouse if the phone is in his name? My spouse was out of town and knew a conversation through text between my daughter and myself. I saw were the text was only sent to her not a group text. When questioning my daughter she responded that she didn’t have any conversation with my spouse. Is it possible for my spouse to be monitoring my text and calls? [Re-Titled by Moderator]

I don't think you can unless you ask her to show them to you. Maybe ATT has some way to let you do that but I don't think anything that Apple has designed will let you.
