Lmmfao!
I can count on one thumb how many kids in my kid’s grade can do shit to bypass parental controls on devices at all.
That one kid tried, and failed. Also, router level blocking isn’t that hard.
But, I’m with you on using it as teaching. You wanna have access to Facebook, we sit down and talk about it, learn the good and bad of it, what to watch out for, etc. Because you’re dead right, all it takes is one other kid without restrictions and a device they’re willing to share. It’s much better to teach your kids than just block them from things.
