    No one said using tools available makes someone a bad parent. They said only blindly using these tools without doing more makes a bad parent.

    No idea how arguing with your kids every 10 minutes came up. Has nothing to do with anything anyone is saying so I’m assuming that is coming from a personal place. Perhaps you’ve over invested in tooling at the sake of healthy, non-confrontational conversation, I don’t know. No one brought this aspect up, but you.

      Constantly arguing with your kids is the method being used if you don’t use parental controls. Especially as they get older and actually need technology to do their school work and to be contactable when they are out and about. I’ve tried it, and it’s not very effective at all.
