I like this suggestion. You can block adult content through just switching the router's DNS to a certain cloudflare address, and I THINK some routers allow blocking a connection from a certain MAC address from X to Y time.

There's also huge blacklists for PiHole to block that stuff, if you're open to self-host stuff.

But those lists, by nature of the vast Internet, won't cover everything, so I think computer use out in the open (like the family area) with set internet-open times would be best.

(A bit more advanced but I'm sure you can, say, permanently whitelist stuff like your distro's update domains, for example.)

And the best thing: Really just have open conversations about the dangers of this stuff on the Internet, and how things will try to hijack your brain. Kids are smart.

I'm about to be an any-day-now dad, so I've been trying to get ahead of this too! :)

Interesting, thank you!
