    The document discusses Toulmin argumentation and its components. It presents an argument that parents should stop surveilling their kids and trust them more. It provides a warrant that electronic monitoring technologies have not reduced delinquent or destructive behaviors. It also gives a backing that most teenagers would feel betrayed if their parents tracked their location on phones. A qualifier, rebuttal, and reiterating of the fact are also included as parts of the Toulmin argument outlined.
