      Sounds like you would be a horrible parent. The last thing kids need is their father to snoop around in their web traffic and erode any kind of privacy. Children are still humans, and you should respect them as such.

      Dumb phone exist. My children got their dumb phones when they started walking to school on their own (so they can call us in case of a problem).

      No internet, only 4 harmless games and I can control which numbers are allowed to call them and which numbers they are allowed to call.
