Your comment reads a bit silly to me. It’s like your child has control over this situation instead of you, and you’re trying your hardest to negotiate a good position for yourself.

If your child doesn’t use the phone in the way you want them to, you could take the phone away.

Had the exact same reaction, this seems like an IT administrator parenting through IT controls at work.

Do you have children yourself?

I have one child who is not yet of relevant age.
