What are you using?
For the 99% of people just use the built in google or apple stuff. It literally gives you some moderately refined control that is more than enough for smaller children. You just make them child accounts through that. If your child or teen is smart enough to get around it its already time for the talk about the true nature of the web and technology. They're ready and will benefit in the long term from it. You can also use AdGuard to protect them from some stuff on apple, and I hate to say it but Google's Family Link is the right amount of convenience after I've blocked all their tracking in my pihole. Theres other methods of blocking this content, but I'm exhausted and would rather have a dedicated fall guy device for the google services for now.
