In the digital age, finding the right balance between parental control and children's privacy is a critical challenge. Parents naturally seek robust tools to manage and monitor their children's online interactions, ensuring safety and appropriate content consumption. However, designing an app that provides these controls without making children feel excessively surveilled or restricted is essential. Achieving this balance is crucial for maintaining a positive user experience and fostering trust and engagement from both parents and children.

Problem
Many social networking apps fail to verify users' ages or restrict conversations to appropriate age groups, leading to potential safety risks for children. Without robust age verification and tailored content, children are exposed to inappropriate interactions and content. While dating apps have successfully implemented age verification systems, these benefits are often lacking in social apps designed for children. This gap leaves parents concerned about their children's online safety and interactions.
