The kids swap info on how to get around stuff. I keep finding new ways to lock down stuff, and my kid keeps finding ways around it. He installed a separate web browser, emulator boxed it, and then signed in that way. Idiot forgot I have access to his accounts so I spotted the new search.
I don't give mine enough freedom to do that kind of stuff, but even the oldest is under 10. I plan to give them their "own" computer this year, maybe a Rpie, maybe an old workstation with a linux build. But once I've actually taught them the "how" I do want to have a plan of action for the "when."

Rough age estimate for your kid?
