      Yeah, it’s pretty damn hard to stop kids from doing things - especially since they have their own devices that are required for school.

            My daughter has had a school-issued laptop since kindergarten but that shit is locked down tight. She can’t just go wherever she wants on it.

            I assumed, quite rationally, that you meant purchased devices. There’s no reason a school device wouldn’t be tightly controlled.
