I don't want her texting with people I don't know, and I can't find a way to disable only that in the game. Either the game is whitelisted or it's not. -- Drew

As should perhaps blood-and-gore-spatter vs flashing-a-boob, so bloodthirsty prudes can disable one but not the other, and sexually-liberated anti-violence people vice versa. Would probably lead to ever more fine-grained sub(-sub-sub-sub...)-distinctions, and then complaints about "too confusing interface", or at least I guess that's their excuse for not doing it that way. (Though yeah, chatting with people vs in-game character behaviour seems a more fundamental distinction to me too.) -- Christian R.

After entering, I noticed that instead of temporarily disabling parental controls I was whitelisting the game. (She wasn't trying to trick me, just followed the prompts onscreen.) I went into the app on my phone and un-whitelisted it and now she seems to be able to get into the game with controls enabled again. This feels like a bug in how parental controls are implemented. -- Drew
