Also parent in the UK - strong disagree, it’s part of our parental responsibilities to set this up, not doing it is the same as not watching a newly walking baby on the stairs (/etc). Compromising everyone’s privacy for a subset of lazy parents is a failing of society.

Relatively few newly walking babies have peers whose parents allow them to use stairs unattended making them feel socially excluded for not also using stairs unattended.

Ignoring the existence of peer pressure and calling parents lazy is a failing of individuals.

I would say we are closer to having society fail thanks to the woeful quality of parenting demonstrated by the majority.
