Just because handcuffung is normal in the USA, that doesnt make it normal or sensible. No one gets cuffed in a normal traffic stop or house visit in the UK for example.
No, I don't think it's unreasonable to have a technical level of control over young kids devices in partnership with close supervision. It's that or no phones until they're 16.
Good suggestions but I'm not convinced that's true.
It's certainly possible to lock some Android devices down hard without rooting them. See Samsung Knox as an example. Even a pro will have a hard time getting around that.
I trust my kids to mostly only use the devices how I say. The security is mainly to keep their mum happy and to keep them from spur of the moment bad descisions with their clicks and time.
I'm guessing toplessness gets rarer as it gets colder, long before you run out of people.
Or as we Brits (of any gender) might say: "I'm freezing me tits off"
