Parent resources
Practical guides for safer family technology
Clear, non-alarmist help with settings, tradeoffs, and the tests parents can use at home.
New device
A practical parental-control checklist for a new child device
Accounts, purchases, schedules, privacy, testing, and recovery before handing over a new device.
Mixed devices
Apple Screen Time vs. Google Family Link
How the two systems divide responsibility—and where games, streaming, and Wi-Fi fit.
Home Wi-Fi
What router-level controls can—and cannot—do
Wi-Fi schedules, device pauses, filters, guest networks, cellular data, VPNs, and limits.
A useful limit: These guides are educational. They do not replace an individualized setup, ongoing supervision, family conversations, or emergency and professional services.
