While age gate attempts are comically stupid, an adult giving a kid a device purpose built for addictive behavior should absolutely be as illegal as giving them alcohol or cigarettes. I really hope Apple and Google are not stupid enough to further enable this.

I don't consider giving a kid a phone in guided access with calculator up to be addictive or something that should be illegal.

Same applies to guided access and a facetime call. I dont want them to switch apps or hang up the call, the phone gets locked down.
