Yes, buried in the settings of each account on each service.

Parents want the equivalent of being able to let their kid go to the mall and trust that the movie theater will not let them in to an R-rated movie. They don't want to have to call the theater, identify the child, and say "don't let them in to this list of movies".

For apps it's inconsistent, for Internet access the options are awful.

> not being able to talk with your child on how the computer works?

What?

"The internet" is extremely widely available and full of hazards of all sorts, some intentional, some deliberate.

I'm pushing back on this idea that it's desirable or even possible for "the parent" to completely protect their children from these hazards. Most of them can't even protect themselves.

We can demand that services, especially child accessible ones, be safer, without also expecting parents to abandon all responsibility.

The argument is that they are selling a product they know is "spoiled", but the analogy breaks down and actually becomes more like you allow your children to smoke cigarettes or dink alcohol regularly. They often knew they were lying and saying they were over 13 to access services, but hey, your kid can't be the only not one smoking cigarettes or drinking, right?
