Well the way I view it is it's all useless. If a 10 year old goes to buy a phone, they can't do so without getting money from an adult who therefore approved of it. If a 15 year old buys a cell phone they can't.... Because they need an adult to have a credit card/bank that allows monthly payments. Only offered to an adult. If you are a minor you can only get one with an adults co-sign. Thus the idea that a child has access to the Internet without an adults consent is just untrue 99.9 percent of the time. schools monitor the traffic . So every situation comes down to negligence on the parent. Who will sign their account in, or their credit card on the kids phone... bypassing all reason for the laws
