Jessica, I’ll also ask a friend. She had a daughter who was kind of a wild child during high school. I don’t know if she controlled her daughter’s purchases, But I know she put a couple of different apps on her phone to keep track of where she was. Also, when I googled this, I saw adds for several different commercial apps that say they limit what your kid can do with their phone. I’ve obviously never used them, so know nothing about how accessible they are. You might try going to AppleVis and asking if there is an accessible app for controlling a child’s phone. Good luck! Donna
