What Is a Teen Activity Check and When Do Parents Use One?
A teen activity check is a discreet surveillance investigation that documents your teenager’s or loved one’s activities, social interactions, locations, and behaviors. Parents typically hire us when they’re concerned about substance abuse, association with negative influences, risky or dangerous behaviors, truancy, or the general safety of a child who is spending time in someone else’s care.
Our investigators use unmarked vehicles and professional recording equipment to observe and document what’s happening in your child’s life without them knowing. You receive time-stamped video, photographs, and written observation reports that give you a clear, factual picture — either confirming your concerns with evidence you can act on, or providing reassurance and peace of mind that your child is safe. This evidence can also support family law proceedings if needed.
